Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 vs Sailfish 320 Express 2013: Which Deep-V Boat Fits Your Needs?
Both the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 and the Sailfish 320 Express 2013 are deep-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Sailfish 320 Express 2013 measures 30,5 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 7,5 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 320 Express 2013 tips the scales at 8 550 lbs - 4 400 lbs less than the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 at 4 150 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 700 hp, the Sailfish 320 Express 2013 has a 550-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 320 Express 2013 carries 300 gallons versus 153 gallons in the Sailfish 2360 WAC 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 320 Express 2013 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sailfish 320 Express 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sailfish 320 Express 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 30,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
