The Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 vs Pursuit C 230 2012 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 measures 26,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 3,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Pursuit C 230 2012 at 22,8 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 tips the scales at 7 385 lbs — 6 927 lbs more than the Pursuit C 230 2012 at 458 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 450 hp, the Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 has a 200-hp advantage over the Pursuit C 230 2012's 250-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 carries 188 gallons versus 105 gallons in the Pursuit C 230 2012. 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 Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Pursuit C 230 2012 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Pursuit 2670 Center Console 2006 could be the deciding factor.
