Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 vs Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 — Which Pontoon Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 and the Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 are pontoon designs with aluminum construction — 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?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 measures 31,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 5,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 at 25,4 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 tips the scales at 295 lbs — 258 lbs less than the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 at 37 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 — 150 hp for the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 and 150 hp for the Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012. 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 Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 carries 23 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009. 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 Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 is rated for 20 passengers, while the Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 caps at 13. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 could be the deciding factor.

One place where both boats are genuinely identical is tube construction: both run 23 aluminum tubes at 25" diameter. That shared spec means stability and buoyancy characteristics are closely matched — the ride difference you'll feel between them comes primarily from deck length, weight distribution, and motor choice.

Bottom line: Choose the Premier Boats Grand Majestic LTD 310 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 20 passengers and at 31,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Premier Boats Solaris RF 250 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 13 that costs less to run day-to-day.
