The Triton Boats 170 DS SC 2006 vs Triton Boats 195 CC 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Triton Boats 170 DS SC 2006 at 17,0 ft versus Triton Boats 195 CC 2007 at 19,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Triton Boats 195 CC 2007 tips the scales at 215 lbs — 130 lbs less than the Triton Boats 170 DS SC 2006 at 85 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 Triton Boats 195 CC 2007 has a 60-hp advantage over the Triton Boats 170 DS SC 2006's 90-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.

Both boats are rated for 5 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.
