Both the Premier Boats Grand Majestic 225 RE 2010 and the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 are pontoon designs, both built in aluminium, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Premier Boats Grand Majestic 225 RE 2010 at 23,0 ft versus Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 at 24,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Premier Boats Grand Majestic 225 RE 2010 tips the scales at 2 650 lbs - 200 lbs more than the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 at 2 450 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 - 140 hp for the Premier Boats Grand Majestic 225 RE 2010 and 150 hp for the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007. 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 - 30 gal and 30 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 is rated for 17 passengers, while the Premier Boats Grand Majestic 225 RE 2010 caps at 12. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 could be the deciding factor.
