Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Pursuit 2870 Center Console 2006 vs Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Pursuit 2870 Center Console 2006 vs Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 450 hp, the Pursuit 2870 Center Console 2006 has a 150-hp advantage over the Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015's 300-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 2870 Center Console 2006 carries 234 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015. 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 Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Pursuit 2870 Center Console 2006 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Pursuit Boats DC 325 Dual Console 2015 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 35,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Pursuit 2870 Center Console 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
