Matching a modified vee Starcraft Marine 2010 OB 2008 against a pontoon Starcraft Marine 246 4 Point RE CR 2008 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Starcraft Marine 246 4 Point RE CR 2008 measures 22,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 20,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Starcraft Marine 2010 OB 2008 at 2,0 feet (2008). At 2 365 lbs and 2 315 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 225 hp, the Starcraft Marine 2010 OB 2008 has a 100-hp advantage over the Starcraft Marine 246 4 Point RE CR 2008's 125-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Starcraft Marine 2010 OB 2008 carries 51 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Starcraft Marine 246 4 Point RE CR 2008. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 12 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
