Eastern Eastern 22 (Sport Fisherman) 2009 vs Eastern Eastern 26 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Eastern Eastern 22 (Sport Fisherman) 2009 against a modified vee Eastern Eastern 26 2010 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Eastern Eastern 26 2010 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Eastern Eastern 22 (Sport Fisherman) 2009 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Eastern Eastern 26 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Eastern Eastern 26 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 26,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Eastern Eastern 22 (Sport Fisherman) 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
