Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007 vs Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007 vs Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 measures 24,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007 at 18,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 tips the scales at 2 417 lbs — 1 539 lbs less than the Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007 at 878 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 RE CR 2007 has a 100-hp advantage over the Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007's 50-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 Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 carries 23 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Starcraft Marine Rogue 1886 2007 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE CR 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Starcraft Marine Starfish 246 RE 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 Rogue 1886 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
