The Starcraft Marine Futura 180 DC Sport 2007 carries a rated maximum of 200 hp. Engine data for the Starcraft Marine STARFISH Series 2009 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Starcraft Marine Futura 180 DC Sport 2007 carries 52 gallons versus 24 gallons in the Starcraft Marine STARFISH Series 2009.

Bottom line: The Starcraft Marine Futura 180 DC Sport 2007 and Starcraft Marine STARFISH Series 2009 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
