Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011 vs EdgeWater 388CC 2010: Same Brand, Different Boat
The EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011 vs EdgeWater 388CC 2010 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 1 050 hp, the EdgeWater 388CC 2010 has a 900-hp advantage over the EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011's 150-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the EdgeWater 388CC 2010 carries 340 gallons versus 140 gallons in the EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The EdgeWater 388CC 2010 is rated for 11 passengers, while the EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the EdgeWater 388CC 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the EdgeWater 388CC 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 11 passengers and at 38,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The EdgeWater 245 Cc 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
