When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Bryant 246 2013 and the Bryant 255 2013 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Bryant 246 2013 at 24,5 ft versus Bryant 255 2013 at 25,4 ft. At 382 lbs and 446 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.
