Matching a deep vee Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012 against a modified vee Sea Chaser 1900 CC 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 — Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012 at 17,6 ft versus Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 at 18,7 ft. At 155 lbs and 166 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 has a 35-hp advantage over the Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012's 115-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 carries 75 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012. 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 Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sea Chaser 1900 CC 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 18,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sea Chaser 1800 CC 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
