Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 vs Smoker Craft Alaskan 13 TLLXS 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 vs Smoker Craft Alaskan 13 TLLXS 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 25 hp for the Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 and 25 hp for the Smoker Craft Alaskan 13 TLLXS 2007. 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 Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Smoker Craft Alaskan 13 TLLXS 2007 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Smoker Craft 2240 OB 2004 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 0,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Smoker Craft Alaskan 13 TLLXS 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
