Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 vs Sailfish 240 CC 2013 - Boat Spec Comparison

Q: Which is the larger boat — the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 or the Sailfish 240 CC 2013?

The Sailfish 240 CC 2013 is the longer of the two at 23,5 feet overall. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 comes in at 23,5 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

Q: Which is easier to trailer — the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 or the Sailfish 240 CC 2013?

For trailering, the Sailfish 240 CC 2013 has the edge at 34 lbs dry weight versus 6 225 lbs for the Sailfish 2360 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 240 CC 2013 is rated to a maximum of 300 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 tops out at 250 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 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 7 passengers, while the Sailfish 240 CC 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.

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

Both the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 and Sailfish 240 CC 2013 share an 9 ft. (2.7 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: How do the fuel tanks compare on the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 and Sailfish 240 CC 2013?

Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 153 gallons and 153 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.

Q: Are the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 and Sailfish 240 CC 2013 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 and the Sailfish 240 CC 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.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 vs Sailfish 240 CC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 against a deep vee Sailfish 240 CC 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 2360 WAC 2011 at 23,5 ft versus Sailfish 240 CC 2013 at 23,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 tips the scales at 6 225 lbs — 6 191 lbs more than the Sailfish 240 CC 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 CC 2013 has a 50-hp advantage over the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011's 250-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 153 gal and 153 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

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: Performance buyers should lean toward the Sailfish 240 CC 2013 and its 300-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Sailfish 2360 WAC 2011 with its 250-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
