How many people can each boat hold?

Which boat has the deeper draft — the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Sport Sport 2015 or the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Touring Touring 2015?
The Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Touring Touring 2015 has the deeper draft at 4,1 ft, versus 4,1 ft for the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Sport Sport 2015. A deeper draft generally means better upwind performance and stability, but limits access to shallow anchorages and some marina berths. Always check the controlling depth of your home port and favourite cruising grounds before committing.
Is the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Sport Sport 2015 or the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Touring Touring 2015 better suited for offshore sailing?
For offshore work, displacement and construction are the primary indicators.

Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Sport Sport 2015 and Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Touring Touring 2015 share an 19.00 ft beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Sport Sport 2015 and Dragonfly Dragonfly 25 - Touring Touring 2015?
