The Sedona F 19 2006 vs Sedona L 23 2006 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 Sedona L 23 2006 measures 22,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 4,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sedona F 19 2006 at 18,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sedona F 19 2006 tips the scales at 187 lbs — 155 lbs more than the Sedona L 23 2006 at 32 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 135 hp, the Sedona L 23 2006 has a 75-hp advantage over the Sedona F 19 2006's 60-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sedona L 23 2006 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Sedona F 19 2006 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sedona L 23 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sedona L 23 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sedona F 19 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
