Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005 vs Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005 vs Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 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 Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 measures 24,0 feet overall (2006), giving it roughly 8,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005 at 16,0 feet (2005). At 326 lbs and 245 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 has a 270-hp advantage over the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005's 30-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 2006 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Triton Boats 240 LTS 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
