The Hurricane Boats FunDeck GS 202 O/B 2007 vs Hurricane Boats SD 260 OB Single 2009 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Hurricane Boats SD 260 OB Single 2009 measures 26,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 24,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Hurricane Boats FunDeck GS 202 O/B 2007 at 2,0 feet (2007).
