Matching a deep vee Trophy 2152 WA 2009 against a modified vee Trophy 2401 Bay Boat 2009 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Trophy 2152 WA 2009 at 21,6 ft versus Trophy 2401 Bay Boat 2009 at 23,7 ft. At 35 lbs and 24 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 250 hp, the Trophy 2401 Bay Boat 2009 has a 30-hp advantage over the Trophy 2152 WA 2009's 220-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 85 gal and 86 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.
