Matching a deep vee Blazer Boats 2170 2010 against a modified vee Blazer Boats 2220 Fisherman 2012 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Blazer Boats 2170 2010 at 21,0 ft versus Blazer Boats 2220 Fisherman 2012 at 22,2 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Blazer Boats 2170 2010 tips the scales at 145 lbs — 129 lbs more than the Blazer Boats 2220 Fisherman 2012 at 16 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 — 140 hp for the Blazer Boats 2170 2010 and 150 hp for the Blazer Boats 2220 Fisherman 2012. 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 carry nearly identical fuel loads — 5 gal and 6 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 8 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.
