The Voyager Marine Series 4400 - 1244 2007 vs Voyager Marine Series 4700 - 1047 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Voyager Marine Series 4400 - 1244 2007 measures 12,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 11,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Voyager Marine Series 4700 - 1047 2007 at 1,0 feet (2007). At 75 lbs and 8 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 2 hp for the Voyager Marine Series 4400 - 1244 2007 and 2 hp for the Voyager Marine Series 4700 - 1047 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 boats are rated for 3 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.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Voyager Marine Series 4700 - 1047 2007 comes in at 4 lbs per hp versus 38 lbs per hp for the Voyager Marine Series 4400 - 1244 2007. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
