Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 vs Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 vs Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 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 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 at 25,0 ft versus Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 at 26,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 tips the scales at 465 lbs — 413 lbs more than the Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 at 52 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 425 hp, the Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 has a 50-hp advantage over the Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009's 375-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 7 gal and 7 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 caps at 13. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Ebbtide 2660 Z-Trak SS DC FC 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 26,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Ebbtide 2320 Z-Trak Bow Rider 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 13 that costs less to run day-to-day.
