Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 vs Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 vs Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 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 Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 measures 26,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 5,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 at 21,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 tips the scales at 405 lbs — 402 lbs less than the Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 at 3 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 250 hp for the Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 and 250 hp for the Sailfish 2660 CC 2008. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 carries 95 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Sailfish 2660 CC 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 2660 CC 2008 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sailfish 2660 CC 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 26,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sailfish 218 WAC 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
