Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 vs Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 against a deep vee Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 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 Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012 measures 19,6 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 3,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 at 16,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012 tips the scales at 163 lbs — 162 lbs less than the Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 at 1 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 Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012 has a 110-hp advantage over the Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006's 90-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 carries 17 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012. 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 Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 caps at 5. 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 with Bench 2012 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Crestliner Super Hawk 1900 - Opened with Bench 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. The Crestliner Sport Angler 1650 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
