Matching a deep vee Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 against a modified vee Sailfish 2660 WAC Pilot House 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Sailfish 240 WAC 2013 at 23,5 ft versus Sailfish 2660 WAC Pilot House 2011 at 26,2 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 2660 WAC Pilot House 2011 tips the scales at 475 lbs — 441 lbs less 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 500 hp, the Sailfish 2660 WAC Pilot House 2011 has a 200-hp advantage over the Sailfish 240 WAC 2013's 300-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 2 gallons in the Sailfish 2660 WAC Pilot House 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.
