That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

Engine specs for the Chris-Craft Launch 25 2010 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Chris-Craft Launch 25 2010 carries 85 gallons versus 34 gallons in the Chris-Craft Silver Bullet 20 Limited Edition 2012. 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.
