Key West 166 SK 2011 vs Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Key West 166 SK 2011 vs Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 has a 100-hp advantage over the Key West 166 SK 2011's 50-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Key West 166 SK 2011 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Key West Boats 244 Center Console 2016 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Key West 166 SK 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
