SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 vs SeaArk BaySport 2010 — A Close Look at Two Modified Vees

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 and the SeaArk BaySport 2010 are modified vee designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 at 20,1 ft versus SeaArk BaySport 2010 at 20,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the SeaArk BaySport 2010 tips the scales at 147 lbs — 146 lbs less than the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 at 1 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 140 hp for the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 and 150 hp for the SeaArk BaySport 2010. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The SeaArk BaySport 2010 is rated for 8 passengers, while the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the SeaArk BaySport 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the SeaArk BaySport 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 20,1 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.

SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 vs SeaArk BaySport 2010 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 or the SeaArk BaySport 2010?
The SeaArk BaySport 2010 is the longer of the two at 20,1 feet overall. The SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 comes in at 20,1 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 or the SeaArk BaySport 2010?
For trailering, the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 has the edge at 1 lbs dry weight versus 147 lbs for the SeaArk BaySport 2010. 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.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The SeaArk BaySport 2010 is rated to a maximum of 150 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 tops out at 140 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the SeaArk BaySport 2010 is certified for 8. 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.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 measures 95" wide, compared to 94" for the SeaArk BaySport 2010. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Are the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 and SeaArk BaySport 2010 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the SeaArk 2072 FX Elite CC 2013 and the SeaArk BaySport 2010 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.
