Xpress H24B 2013 vs Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008: A Close Look at Two Modified-V Boats

Both the Xpress H24B 2013 and the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 are modified-V designs, both built in aluminium, so 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?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Xpress H24B 2013 at 24,0 ft versus Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 at 22,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Xpress H24B 2013 tips the scales at 1 659 lbs - 440 lbs more than the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 at 1 219 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 250 hp, the Xpress H24B 2013 has a 120-hp advantage over the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008's 130-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Xpress H24B 2013 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Xpress H24B 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Xpress H24B 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Xpress H24B 2013 vs Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Xpress H24B 2013 or the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008?
The Xpress H24B 2013 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 2,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Xpress H24B 2013 or the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008?
For trailering, the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 has the edge at 1 219 lbs dry weight versus 1 659 lbs for the Xpress H24B 2013. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Xpress H24B 2013 is rated to a maximum of 250 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 tops out at 130 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that - matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Xpress H24B 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 10 passengers, while the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 is certified for 6. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing - on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Xpress H24B 2013 and Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 share an 95 in. beam - meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
Are the Xpress H24B 2013 and Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Xpress H24B 2013 and the Xpress HDCC Series - HD22CCF 2008 are built by Xpress. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
