Tracking Rinker Models

[Chris_P]

I had a discussion with a friend about the various updates/changes in the Rinker models over the years ... I recall reading a post that outlines the succession of models but after searching, I cant seem to locate it.  Can someone please post the evolution tree for the common Rinker models or the link of this has already been discussed?  I only know a few ... and am not even 100% sure on those

270 to 280
290 to 300 to 310
310 to 320 to 330 to 340
330 to 340 to 342 to 350 to 360

And the 360 to the 370  (another foot on the swim platform and a nicer seat, with cupholders, back by the "boot".  Happened about the same time the 342 went to the 350. 

Alswagg would know better but I think the 390 went to the 400 at the same time as well.

I can't even begin to track them, but one of the salesmen at our marina has a list of the model history since he has been selling Rinkers (15 year or so, I guess).  It is very interesting and tracks all the models.  I'll has to see if I can copy it next time I talk to him.

Another is 242 to 250 to 260.

Thanks Al !  Very comprehensive list !  Was the new 330 and 350 brand new designs or based on a previous hull?

[alswagg]

the 330 and 350 where completely new hull designs,  From Bonnett designs.  the 260 and 280 where also.  I am not sure who developed the new 310 hull and deck.  Al
