The Ebbtide 2100 Fun Cruiser OB 2007 vs Ebbtide 2100 Fun Cruiser SC 2007 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Ebbtide 2100 Fun Cruiser OB 2007 at 21,0 ft versus Ebbtide 2100 Fun Cruiser SC 2007 at 21,0 ft.

Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 45 gal and 45 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
Both boats are rated for 12 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.
