Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 vs Landau Atlantis 250 2007: A Close Look at Two Pontoon Boats

Both the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 and the Landau Atlantis 250 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 224 Fish 2012 at 22,0 ft versus Landau Atlantis 250 2007 at 24,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 tips the scales at 2 166 lbs - 166 lbs more than the Landau Atlantis 250 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 A'lure 224 Fish 2012 and 125 hp for the Landau Atlantis 250 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 250 2007 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 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 250 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 Atlantis 250 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 A'lure 224 Fish 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 vs Landau Atlantis 250 2007 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 or the Landau Atlantis 250 2007?
The Landau Atlantis 250 2007 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 2,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 or the Landau Atlantis 250 2007?
For trailering, the Landau Atlantis 250 2007 has the edge at 2 000 lbs dry weight versus 2 166 lbs for the Landau A'lure 224 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 224 Fish 2012 is Coast Guard rated for 11 passengers, while the Landau Atlantis 250 2007 is certified for 14. 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.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 and Landau Atlantis 250 2007 share an 102 in. beam - meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
Are the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 and Landau Atlantis 250 2007 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Landau A'lure 224 Fish 2012 and the Landau Atlantis 250 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.
