Both the Duckworth 24 2011 and the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard Jet 24 2013 are deep-V designs, both built in aluminium, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Duckworth 24 2011 at 24,0 ft versus Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard Jet 24 2013 at 24,0 ft. At 3 720 lbs and 3 720 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class - either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The Duckworth 24 2011 carries a rated maximum of 450 hp. Engine data for the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard Jet 24 2013 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 80 gal and 80 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 7 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.
