Matching a flat Triton Boats 1231 SFB 2009 against a modified vee Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 measures 24,0 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 13,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Triton Boats 1231 SFB 2009 at 11,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 tips the scales at 245 lbs — 236 lbs less than the Triton Boats 1231 SFB 2009 at 9 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 200 hp, the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 has a 197-hp advantage over the Triton Boats 1231 SFB 2009's 3-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 Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Triton Boats 1231 SFB 2009 caps at 2. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 could be the deciding factor.
