Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Trophy 2203 CC 2012 vs Trophy 2352 WA 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Trophy 2203 CC 2012 vs Trophy 2352 WA 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 — Trophy 2203 CC 2012 at 22,5 ft versus Trophy 2352 WA 2007 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Trophy 2352 WA 2007 tips the scales at 4 678 lbs — 4 646 lbs less than the Trophy 2203 CC 2012 at 32 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 250 hp for the Trophy 2203 CC 2012 and 260 hp for the Trophy 2352 WA 2007. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 104 gal and 101 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: The Trophy 2203 CC 2012 and Trophy 2352 WA 2007 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
