Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 vs Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 — A Close Look at Two Pontoons

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 and the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 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?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 at 24,0 ft versus Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 at 24,0 ft. At 245 lbs and 245 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 225 hp, the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 has a 75-hp advantage over the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.

Both boats are rated for 14 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.

Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 and its 225-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 with its 150-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 vs Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 or the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007?
The Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 comes in at 24,0 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 or the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007?
For trailering, the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 has the edge at 245 lbs dry weight versus 245 lbs for the Premier Boats S-Series 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 S-Series 250 2007 is rated to a maximum of 225 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 tops out at 150 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 S-Series 250 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 14 passengers, while the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 is certified for 14. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 and Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 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.
Are the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 and Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Premier Boats S-Series 250 2007 and the Premier Boats SunSation 250 RE 2007 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.
