Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 vs Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 is a modified-V design and the Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 LXi 292 I/O 2013 measures 29,2 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 13,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 at 16,2 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013 tips the scales at 5 970 lbs - 4 820 lbs less than the Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 at 1 150 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.
The Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 carries a rated maximum of 90 hp. Engine data for the Larson LXi 292 I/O 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 LXi 292 I/O 2013 carries 100 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Larson LX 620 O/B 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Larson LXi 292 I/O 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 8 passengers and at 29,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Larson LX 620 O/B 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
