Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 vs Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 — A Close Look at Two Modified Vees

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 and the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 are modified vee designs with fiberglass 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 has a 100-hp advantage over the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010's 200-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 79 gal and 79 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 7 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: Performance buyers should lean toward the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 and its 300-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 with its 200-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

The Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 comes in at 24,0 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 is rated to a maximum of 300 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 tops out at 200 hp.

How many people can each boat hold?

Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 and Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010 share an 8 ft. 6 in beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2009 and Triton Boats 240 LTS Pro 2010?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 79 gallons and 79 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
