Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Trophy 1952 WA 2008 vs Trophy 2102 WA 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Trophy 1952 WA 2008 vs Trophy 2102 WA 2011 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 1952 WA 2008 at 19,0 ft versus Trophy 2102 WA 2011 at 21,6 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Trophy 1952 WA 2008 tips the scales at 3 235 lbs — 2 892 lbs more than the Trophy 2102 WA 2011 at 343 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 2008 has a 70-hp advantage over the Trophy 2102 WA 2011's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Trophy 2102 WA 2011 carries 86 gallons versus 55 gallons in the Trophy 1952 WA 2008. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Trophy 2102 WA 2011 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Trophy 1952 WA 2008 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Trophy 2102 WA 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Trophy 2102 WA 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 21,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Trophy 1952 WA 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
