Both the Concept 27 CC Series 2013 and the Concept 27 PR Sport 2011 are deep-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so 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 - Concept 27 CC Series 2013 at 26,7 ft versus Concept 27 PR Sport 2011 at 26,7 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Concept 27 PR Sport 2011 tips the scales at 3 200 lbs - 600 lbs less than the Concept 27 CC Series 2013 at 2 600 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 350 hp, the Concept 27 PR Sport 2011 has a 50-hp advantage over the Concept 27 CC Series 2013's 300-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 110 gal and 110 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
Both boats are rated for 8 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Concept 27 PR Sport 2011 and its 350-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Concept 27 CC Series 2013 with its 300-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
