Q: Which is easier to trailer — the Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 or the Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005?

For trailering, the Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 has the edge at 374 lbs dry weight versus 4 526 lbs for the Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005.

The Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 has a documented max rating of 300 hp. Engine specifications for the Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.

The Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005 is certified for 7.

Both the Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 and Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005 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.

Q: How do the fuel tanks compare on the Maxum 2200 SR3 2007 and Maxum 2400SC3 Sport Boat 2005?

Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 5 gallons and 7 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
