Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 vs Pursuit OS 315 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 vs Pursuit OS 315 2013 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 OS 315 2013 measures 32,7 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 29,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 at 3,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Pursuit OS 315 2013 tips the scales at 11 015 lbs — 10 051 lbs less than the Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 at 964 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 Pursuit OS 315 2013 tops out at 600 hp. Engine specs for the Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Pursuit OS 315 2013 carries 284 gallons versus 31 gallons in the Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 9 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: The Pursuit OS 315 2013 at 32,7 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Pursuit 3070 Offshore 2006 at 3,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
