Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Stingray 225CR 2012 vs Stingray 225SX 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Stingray 225CR 2012 against a deep vee Stingray 225SX 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Both boats are rated for 1 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.
Bottom line: The Stingray 225CR 2012 and Stingray 225SX 2013 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.
