Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 vs Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 against a deep vee Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 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 2100 BB 2008 at 21,0 ft versus Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 at 23,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 tips the scales at 225 lbs — 191 lbs more than the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 at 34 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 300 hp, the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 has a 100-hp advantage over the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008's 200-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 240 WAC 2013 carries 153 gallons versus 63 gallons in the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008. 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 Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 23,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 vs Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 or the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013?
The Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 is the longer of the two at 23,5 feet overall. The Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 comes in at 21,0 feet, making it roughly 2,5 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 or the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013?
For trailering, the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 has the edge at 34 lbs dry weight versus 225 lbs for the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 is rated to a maximum of 300 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 tops out at 200 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 is certified for 7. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 measures 108" wide, compared to 102" for the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 or the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013?
The Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 has the bigger tank at 153 gallons, versus 63 gallons on the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008. That 90-gallon difference translates to roughly 270–450 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 and Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Sailfish 2100 BB 2008 and the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 are built by Sailfish. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
