Matching a deep vee Sailfish 1900 BB 2012 against a modified vee Sailfish 2100 BB 2011 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Sailfish 1900 BB 2012 at 19,0 ft versus Sailfish 2100 BB 2011 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2100 BB 2011 tips the scales at 3 295 lbs — 3 100 lbs less than the Sailfish 1900 BB 2012 at 195 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 225 hp, the Sailfish 2100 BB 2011 has a 75-hp advantage over the Sailfish 1900 BB 2012's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sailfish 2100 BB 2011 carries 63 gallons versus 52 gallons in the Sailfish 1900 BB 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
