Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crestliner CR 1448 TS 2004 vs Crestliner Sportsman 1250 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crestliner CR 1448 TS 2004 vs Crestliner Sportsman 1250 2013 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 25 hp for the Crestliner CR 1448 TS 2004 and 20 hp for the Crestliner Sportsman 1250 2013. 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 4 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: The Crestliner CR 1448 TS 2004 and Crestliner Sportsman 1250 2013 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
