The Trophy 1901 Bay Pro 2007 vs Trophy 1952 WA 2009 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 — Trophy 1901 Bay Pro 2007 at 19,0 ft versus Trophy 1952 WA 2009 at 19,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Trophy 1952 WA 2009 tips the scales at 3 235 lbs — 608 lbs less than the Trophy 1901 Bay Pro 2007 at 2 627 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 220 hp, the Trophy 1952 WA 2009 has a 70-hp advantage over the Trophy 1901 Bay Pro 2007's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 55 gal and 55 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
