Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Eastern 22 Lobsterfisherman 2011 vs Eastern Boat tournament 2018 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Eastern 22 Lobsterfisherman 2011 vs Eastern Boat tournament 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Eastern Boat tournament 2018 has a 185-hp advantage over the Eastern 22 Lobsterfisherman 2011's 115-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 Eastern Boat tournament 2018 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Eastern 22 Lobsterfisherman 2011 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Eastern Boat tournament 2018 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Eastern Boat tournament 2018 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 27,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Eastern 22 Lobsterfisherman 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
