Recommended vs Official Bluefin Cruise Lite Weight Limit
The Bluefin Cruise Lite’s official weight limits are 270 lbs for the 10′ model and 330 lbs for the 11’4″ model.
However, we recommend that the Bluefin Cruise Lite have a maximum weight of 175 lbs for the 10′ model and 200 lbs for the 11’4″ model.
Why do these figures differ?
Most brands, including Bluefin, often state higher weight limits for their boards. While not false advertising, this pushes the boundaries of the boards’ optimal performance limits. Paddleboards may not sink when laden above the recommended weight, but paddling becomes much less efficient.
The board sits lower in the water, making it harder to paddle and maneuver. Our recommended weight limits ensure a buoyant and responsive paddleboarding experience.
