Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 vs Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 — Which Pontoon Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 and the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 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 Intrigue 250 2007 measures 24,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 22,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). At 245 lbs and 235 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 has a 50-hp advantage over the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009's 100-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 3 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 Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 is rated for 17 passengers, while the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 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.

Bottom line: Choose the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 17 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 12 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Which is the larger boat — the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 or the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009?
The Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 comes in at 2,0 feet, making it roughly 22,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 or the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009?
For trailering, the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 has the edge at 235 lbs dry weight versus 245 lbs for the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 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.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 is rated to a maximum of 150 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 tops out at 100 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 17 passengers, while the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 is certified for 12.

Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 and Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 share an 8 ft. 6 in 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 Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 and Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009?

Yes — both the Premier Boats Intrigue 250 2007 and the Premier Boats SunSation 210 RE 2009 are built by Premier Boats. 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.
