Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 vs Quicksilver Activ 605 Open 2022 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 vs Quicksilver Activ 605 Open 2022 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 Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 carries a rated maximum of 260 hp. Engine data for the Quicksilver Activ 605 Open 2022 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 Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Quicksilver Activ 605 Open 2022 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Quicksilver 855 Weekend Centenary 2017 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 29,4 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Quicksilver Activ 605 Open 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
