Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 vs Princecraft PW1448M 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 vs Princecraft PW1448M 2006 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 carries a rated maximum of 40 hp. Engine data for the Princecraft PW1448M 2006 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Princecraft PW1448M 2006 caps at 3. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Princecraft Pro 142 SC 2004 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 0,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Princecraft PW1448M 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 3 that costs less to run day-to-day.
