Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crownline 240SS 2022 vs Crownline E6 EC 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crownline 240SS 2022 vs Crownline E6 EC 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 430 hp, the Crownline E6 EC 2012 has a 130-hp advantage over the Crownline 240SS 2022's 300-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 Crownline E6 EC 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Crownline 240SS 2022 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Crownline E6 EC 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Crownline E6 EC 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 26,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Crownline 240SS 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
