Matching a other Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009 against a modified vee Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 measures 23,6 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 5,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009 at 18,0 feet (2009). At 115 lbs and 215 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 has a 100-hp advantage over the Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009's 200-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 carries 75 gallons versus 45 gallons in the Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Action Craft 2310 TE 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 23,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Action Craft 1890 Flats Master 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
