The Trophy 2352 WA 2013 vs Trophy 2359 Hardtop WA 2006 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 2352 WA 2013 at 23,4 ft versus Trophy 2359 Hardtop WA 2006 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Trophy 2359 Hardtop WA 2006 tips the scales at 5 235 lbs - 557 lbs less than the Trophy 2352 WA 2013 at 4 678 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 - 260 hp for the Trophy 2352 WA 2013 and 260 hp for the Trophy 2359 Hardtop WA 2006. 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Trophy 2352 WA 2013 carries 101 gallons versus 87 gallons in the Trophy 2359 Hardtop WA 2006. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

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.
