Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 vs Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 vs Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story: intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 measures 61,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 44,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 at 17,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 tips the scales at 51 500 lbs - 49 400 lbs less than the Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 at 2 100 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 Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 tops out at 862 hp. Engine specs for the Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 aren't listed - confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 carries 700 gallons versus 21 gallons in the Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006. 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 Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 is rated for 18 passengers, while the Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 18 passengers and at 61,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sea Ray 175 Sport 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
