Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 vs Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 vs Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 measures 25,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 at 19,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 tips the scales at 2 987 lbs — 2 939 lbs more than the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 at 48 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 — 260 hp for the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 and 260 hp for the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006. 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 carries 35 gallons versus 7 gallons in the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006. 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 Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 25,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 vs Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 or the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006?
The Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 is the longer of the two at 25,0 feet overall. The Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 comes in at 19,0 feet, making it roughly 6,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 or the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006?
For trailering, the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 has the edge at 48 lbs dry weight versus 2 987 lbs for the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006. 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 Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 is Coast Guard rated for 5 passengers, while the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 is certified for 7. 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.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 measures 102" wide, compared to 95" for the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006. 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.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 or the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006?
The Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 has the bigger tank at 35 gallons, versus 7 gallons on the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006. That 28-gallon difference translates to roughly 84–140 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 and Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Maxum 1900SR3 Sport Boat 2006 and the Maxum 2400SE Sport Cruiser 2006 are built by Maxum. 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.
