Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 vs Landau A'Lure 214 2007: A Close Look at Two Pontoon Boats

Both the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 and the Landau A'Lure 214 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 A'lure 204 Fish 2012 at 20,0 ft versus Landau A'Lure 214 2007 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 tips the scales at 1 594 lbs - 169 lbs more than the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 at 1 425 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 - 90 hp for the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 and 90 hp for the Landau A'Lure 214 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 A'Lure 214 2007 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 could be the deciding factor.

Both are 23-tube and 2-tube pontoon designs respectively. Tube diameter and gauge affect stability and load capacity - more so than most buyers realize when comparing on paper.

Bottom line: Choose the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 20,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 vs Landau A'Lure 214 2007 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 or the Landau A'Lure 214 2007?
The Landau A'Lure 214 2007 is the longer of the two at 20,0 feet overall. The Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 comes in at 20,0 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 or the Landau A'Lure 214 2007?
For trailering, the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 has the edge at 1 425 lbs dry weight versus 1 594 lbs for the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012. 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.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 is Coast Guard rated for 8 passengers, while the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 is certified for 10.

Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Landau A'Lure 214 2007 measures 102" wide, compared to 96" for the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 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.
Are the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 and Landau A'Lure 214 2007 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Landau A'lure 204 Fish 2012 and the Landau A'Lure 214 2007 are built by Landau. 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.
