The Starcraft Marine Limited 240 4 Point 2006 vs Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Starcraft Marine Limited 240 4 Point 2006 at 24,0 ft versus Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 at 24,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 tips the scales at 2 417 lbs — 102 lbs less than the Starcraft Marine Limited 240 4 Point 2006 at 2 315 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 135 hp for the Starcraft Marine Limited 240 4 Point 2006 and 150 hp for the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 24 gal and 23 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 14 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.
