Both the Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 and the Landau Atlantis 240 2007 are pontoon designs, both built in aluminium, so 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 - Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 at 23,0 ft versus Landau Atlantis 240 2007 at 24,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 tips the scales at 2 340 lbs - 340 lbs more than the Landau Atlantis 240 2007 at 2 000 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling - 130 hp for the Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 and 125 hp for the Landau Atlantis 240 2007. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Landau Atlantis 240 2007 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Landau Atlantis 240 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Landau Atlantis 240 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 14 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Landau 230 Atlantis Sport Cruise 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
