Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 vs Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 - Boat Spec Comparison

Q: Which is the larger boat — the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 or the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011?

The Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 is the longer of the two at 26,2 feet overall. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 comes in at 23,0 feet, making it roughly 3,2 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

Q: Which is easier to trailer — the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 or the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011?

For trailering, the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 has the edge at 415 lbs dry weight versus 7 325 lbs for the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011. 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.

Q: Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?

The Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 is rated to a maximum of 500 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 tops out at 150 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.

Q: How many people can each boat hold?

The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 is Coast Guard rated for 7 passengers, while the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 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.

Q: Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?

Both the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 and Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 share an 9 ft. (2.74 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.

Q: Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 or the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011?

The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 has the bigger tank at 153 gallons, versus 2 gallons on the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011. That 151-gallon difference translates to roughly 453–755 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.

Q: Are the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 and Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 and the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 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.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 vs Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 against a modified vee Sailfish 2660 WAC 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 measures 26,2 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 3,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 at 23,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 tips the scales at 7 325 lbs — 6 910 lbs less than the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 at 415 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 500 hp, the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 has a 350-hp advantage over the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008'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 2360 WAC 2008 carries 153 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 7 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 Sailfish 2660 WAC 2011 at 26,2 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 at 23,0 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.
