Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 vs Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 vs Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 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 2006 measures 58,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 35,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 at 22,1 feet (2023). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 tips the scales at 51 500 lbs - 47 201 lbs more than the Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 at 4 299 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 Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 tops out at 150 hp. Engine specs for the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 aren't listed - confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 carries 700 gallons versus 50 gallons in the Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023. 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 2006 is rated for 17 passengers, while the Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 caps at 6. 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 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sea Ray 58 Sedan Bridge 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 17 passengers and at 58,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sea Ray Sun Sport 230 Outboard 2023 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
