When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Eliminator 27 ft. Fun Deck 2010 and the Eliminator 340 Eagle XP 2009 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Eliminator 340 Eagle XP 2009 measures 33,8 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 6,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Eliminator 27 ft. Fun Deck 2010 at 27,3 feet (2010). At 5 lbs and 76 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Eliminator 27 ft. Fun Deck 2010 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Eliminator 340 Eagle XP 2009 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Eliminator 27 ft. Fun Deck 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Eliminator 27 ft. Fun Deck 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 27,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Eliminator 340 Eagle XP 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.
