Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 vs Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 against a modified vee Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 at 20,3 ft versus Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 at 20,1 ft. At 22 lbs and 29 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.

The Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 carries a rated maximum of 200 hp. Engine data for the Glastron GT 205 DB 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 GT 200 GTS 2012 carries 32 gallons versus 5 gallons in the Glastron GT 205 DB 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 DB 2010 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 20,1 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 vs Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 or the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010?
The Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 is the longer of the two at 20,3 feet overall. The Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 comes in at 20,1 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 GT 200 GTS 2012 or the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010?
For trailering, the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 has the edge at 22 lbs dry weight versus 29 lbs for the Glastron GT 205 DB 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 GT 200 GTS 2012 has a documented max rating of 200 hp. Engine specifications for the Glastron GT 205 DB 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 GT 200 GTS 2012 is Coast Guard rated for 9 passengers, while the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 is certified for 10. 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 GT 205 DB 2010 measures 102" wide, compared to 96" for the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012. 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 GT 200 GTS 2012 or the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010?
The Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 has the bigger tank at 32 gallons, versus 5 gallons on the Glastron GT 205 DB 2010. That 27-gallon difference translates to roughly 81–135 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 and Glastron GT 205 DB 2010 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Glastron GT 200 GTS 2012 and the Glastron GT 205 DB 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.
