When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Weeres Allure 2012 and the Weeres Sun Deck SE 200 2009 are pontoon designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Weeres Allure 2012 measures 22,3 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 20,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Weeres Sun Deck SE 200 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Weeres Allure 2012 tips the scales at 1 565 lbs — 1 400 lbs more than the Weeres Sun Deck SE 200 2009 at 165 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 — 115 hp for the Weeres Allure 2012 and 100 hp for the Weeres Sun Deck SE 200 2009. 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 11 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 Weeres Allure 2012 at 22,3 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Weeres Sun Deck SE 200 2009 at 2,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
