Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 vs Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 is a modified-V design and the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 is a pontoon design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 Starfish 246 CR 2007 measures 24,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 7,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 at 16,3 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 tips the scales at 2 417 lbs - 1 897 lbs less than the Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 at 520 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 has a 110-hp advantage over the Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010's 40-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 CR 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 14 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Starcraft Marine PRO CAMP 1620 T 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
