Matching a deep vee Weldcraft Marine 206 2010 against a modified vee Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 measures 24,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 3,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Weldcraft Marine 206 2010 at 20,5 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Weldcraft Marine 206 2010 tips the scales at 154 lbs — 116 lbs more than the Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 at 38 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Weldcraft Marine 206 2010 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Weldcraft Marine 24 Select 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Weldcraft Marine 206 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
