When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the ThunderJet Alexis Classic 2009 and the ThunderJet TJ Offshore Outboards 2010 are modified vee designs with aluminum 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 ThunderJet Alexis Classic 2009 carries a rated maximum of 325 hp. Engine data for the ThunderJet TJ Offshore Outboards 2010 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 ThunderJet TJ Offshore Outboards 2010 is rated for 9 passengers, while the ThunderJet Alexis Classic 2009 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the ThunderJet TJ Offshore Outboards 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the ThunderJet TJ Offshore Outboards 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 25,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
