Glastron GS 219 2006 vs Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Glastron GS 219 2006 vs Glastron GT 205 SF 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Glastron GS 219 2006 at 21,0 ft versus Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 at 20,7 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 tips the scales at 275 lbs — 239 lbs less than the Glastron GS 219 2006 at 36 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 Glastron GS 219 2006 carries a rated maximum of 300 hp. Engine data for the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Glastron GS 219 2006 carries 56 gallons versus 35 gallons in the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010. 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 Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Glastron GS 219 2006 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 20,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Glastron GS 219 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Glastron GS 219 2006 vs Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Glastron GS 219 2006 or the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010?
The Glastron GS 219 2006 is the longer of the two at 21,0 feet overall. The Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 comes in at 20,7 feet, making it roughly 0,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Glastron GS 219 2006 or the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010?
For trailering, the Glastron GS 219 2006 has the edge at 36 lbs dry weight versus 275 lbs for the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?
The Glastron GS 219 2006 has a documented max rating of 300 hp. Engine specifications for the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Glastron GS 219 2006 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 is certified for 9. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Glastron GS 219 2006 measures 102" wide, compared to 92" for the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Glastron GS 219 2006 or the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010?
The Glastron GS 219 2006 has the bigger tank at 56 gallons, versus 35 gallons on the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010. That 21-gallon difference translates to roughly 63–105 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Glastron GS 219 2006 and Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Glastron GS 219 2006 and the Glastron GT 205 SF 2010 are built by Glastron. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
