Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 vs Larson LSR 2100 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 against a deep vee Larson LSR 2100 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 measures 28,0 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 6,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the Larson LSR 2100 2013 at 21,1 feet (2013). At 6 lbs and 27 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 carries a rated maximum of 375 hp. Engine data for the Larson LSR 2100 2013 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 carries 85 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Larson LSR 2100 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Bottom line: The Larson 274 Cabrio 2010 at 28,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Larson LSR 2100 2013 at 21,1 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
