The Crest III Classic 22 2007 vs Crest Savannah Model 22 2004 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Crest III Classic 22 2007 at 22,0 ft versus Crest Savannah Model 22 2004 at 22,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Crest III Classic 22 2007 tips the scales at 2 656 lbs — 2 395 lbs more than the Crest Savannah Model 22 2004 at 261 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 135 hp for the Crest III Classic 22 2007 and 130 hp for the Crest Savannah Model 22 2004. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

Both boats are rated for 14 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.
