Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Marquis Yachts 520 2009 vs Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a semi displacement Marquis Yachts 520 2009 against a deep vee Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 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 Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 measures 65,7 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 14,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Marquis Yachts 520 2009 at 51,6 feet (2009).

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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 is rated for 20 passengers, while the Marquis Yachts 520 2009 caps at 14. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Marquis Yachts 630 Sport Yacht 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 20 passengers and at 65,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Marquis Yachts 520 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 14 that costs less to run day-to-day.
