Matching a deep vee Clearwater 1800 CC 2010 against a modified vee Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 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 Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 measures 21,0 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 4,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Clearwater 1800 CC 2010 at 17,0 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Clearwater 1800 CC 2010 tips the scales at 185 lbs — 156 lbs more than the Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 at 29 lbs. 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 200 hp, the Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 has a 85-hp advantage over the Clearwater 1800 CC 2010's 115-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 carries 85 gallons versus 35 gallons in the Clearwater 1800 CC 2010. 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 Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Clearwater 1800 CC 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Clearwater 2100 WA 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Clearwater 1800 CC 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
