Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crownline 255 CCR 2005 vs Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crownline 255 CCR 2005 vs Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018 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 Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018 tops out at 250 hp. Engine specs for the Crownline 255 CCR 2005 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Crownline 255 CCR 2005 carries 62 gallons versus 55 gallons in the Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018. 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 Crownline 255 CCR 2005 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Crownline 255 CCR 2005 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Crownline 255 CCR 2005 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 26,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Crownline Eclipse E24 XS 2018 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
