Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Starcraft Marine Limited 2119 I/O 2012 and the Starcraft Marine Starcaster 2009 are modified vee designs with fiberglass 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?
The Starcraft Marine Limited 2119 I/O 2012 carries a rated maximum of 300 hp. Engine data for the Starcraft Marine Starcaster 2009 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Starcraft Marine Starcaster 2009 is rated for 4 passengers, while the Starcraft Marine Limited 2119 I/O 2012 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Starcraft Marine Starcaster 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Starcraft Marine Starcaster 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 4 passengers and at 17,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
