310 EC RLS Production Numbers

knucklebuster

I recently purchased a 2014 310 EC with the RLS, Rinker Luxury Sport option and I've never seen another one advertised or online. I was wondering how many 310 EC RLS optioned boats Rinker produced or if anyone else owns one?

For what it's worth, I've never heard of RLS in my 20 years as a Rinker enthusiast.

Same here.  Never heard of it.  But now I’m curious

I love my Rinker but I wouldn’t call it luxurious or sporty! Mine doesn’t have RLS I guess.

I have a plain ol' 2014 310 EC and am curious -- what's in the "Rinker Luxury Sport" option? I also have a copy of the 2018 320 EX brochure (which is the exact same boat) and no mention of any RLS option. Sure it wasn't just a sales pitch by the broker?

Rinker was known for some custom upgrades as per our missing member Michael T.

I know Mr. T was known for spec'ing out his boats, but @knucklebuster's description sounds more like an "option" available to everyone versus a custom one-off "upgrade."

Looks like an option package.

Yes all of those options look very familiar! Thank you! I have all of them including the 2 exterior black gelcoat stripes I've never seen before on another 310 EC. I also have 2 large oval RLS emblems on each side of the hardtop towers right under the black 310 emblems. I've attached a photo of the RLS emblem. Are build sheets available?  I don't have any of the original paperwork that may have documented all the options. I suspect my boat may be the one featured in the 2014 boating mag article but have no way to confirm unless someone out there can confirm how many of these Rinker produced: Rinker 310 Express Cruiser | Boating Mag

Well, it's safe to say you have a rare boat -- very cool!

Build sheets used to be available. Not sure how many got kept when Polaris shut Rinker down. You could reach out to Godfrey Marine since they are handling all of the warranty work for Rinker. You could also reach out to Kim Slocum on Facebook. He might be able to help you. He is very knowledgeable on Rinker, but might not have actual numbers. I looked at the information that I received from a sales rep and it didn't have anything from 2014. It had info from 2006ish to 2010.

I reached out to Godfrey marine this morning with my Hull number asking for a copy of my build sheet and immediately received a reply from Terri Gibson with all installed options according to the HIN. The only thing I didn't see were production numbers. Thank you for the tip!
