Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crestliner CR 1236 2004 vs Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crestliner CR 1236 2004 vs Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 200 hp, the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 has a 199-hp advantage over the Crestliner CR 1236 2004's 1-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Crestliner CR 1236 2004 caps at 3. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 19,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
