Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 vs Maxum 3700 SY 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 vs Maxum 3700 SY 2007 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 3700 SY 2007 measures 37,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 16,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 at 21,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 tips the scales at 3 568 lbs — 1 636 lbs more than the Maxum 3700 SY 2007 at 1 932 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 420 hp, the Maxum 3700 SY 2007 has a 120-hp advantage over the Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006's 300-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 5 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Maxum 3700 SY 2007 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Maxum 3700 SY 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Maxum 3700 SY 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 37,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Maxum 2100SC Sport Boat 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
