Which is the larger boat — the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 or the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005?
The SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 is the longer of the two at 18,0 feet overall. The SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 comes in at 16,0 feet, making it roughly 2,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 or the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005?
For trailering, the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 has the edge at 5 lbs dry weight versus 61 lbs for the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006. 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.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?
The SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 has a documented max rating of 60 hp. Engine specifications for the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.
How many people can each boat hold?
The SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 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.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 and SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 share an 82 in 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.
Are the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 and SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the SeaArk 1660 Deluxe 2006 and the SeaArk Super Jons 1860 MV 2005 are built by SeaArk. 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.
