When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Eliminator 28 ft. Fun Deck 2011 and the Eliminator 300 Eagle XP 2010 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?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Eliminator 28 ft. Fun Deck 2011 at 28,2 ft versus Eliminator 300 Eagle XP 2010 at 29,0 ft. At 55 lbs and 58 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 28 ft. Fun Deck 2011 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Eliminator 300 Eagle XP 2010 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Eliminator 28 ft. Fun Deck 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Eliminator 28 ft. Fun Deck 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 28,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Eliminator 300 Eagle XP 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
