Maxum 2100 SD 2007 vs Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Maxum 2100 SD 2007 vs Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Maxum 2100 SD 2007 at 21,0 ft versus Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 at 21,0 ft. At 3 953 lbs and 3 928 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 300 hp for the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 and 300 hp for the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 55 gal and 55 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Maxum 2100 SD 2007 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Maxum 2100 SD 2007 vs Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 or the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006?
The Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 is the longer of the two at 21,0 feet overall. The Maxum 2100 SD 2007 comes in at 21,0 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 or the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006?
For trailering, the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 has the edge at 3 928 lbs dry weight versus 3 953 lbs for the Maxum 2100 SD 2007. 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 2100 SD 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 is certified for 1. 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 Maxum 2100 SD 2007 and Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 share an 8 ft. 6 in. (2.59 m) 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.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 and Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 55 gallons and 55 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 and Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 2006 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Maxum 2100 SD 2007 and the Maxum 2100SD Sport Deck 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.
