Both the Century Boats 2200 Center Console 2010 and the Century Boats 2201 Inshore 2013 are deep-V designs, both built in fibreglass, 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 - Century Boats 2200 Center Console 2010 at 22,0 ft versus Century Boats 2201 Inshore 2013 at 21,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Century Boats 2200 Center Console 2010 tips the scales at 3 500 lbs - 1 700 lbs more than the Century Boats 2201 Inshore 2013 at 1 800 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 Century Boats 2200 Center Console 2010 has a 25-hp advantage over the Century Boats 2201 Inshore 2013's 225-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Century Boats 2200 Center Console 2010 carries 110 gallons versus 50 gallons in the Century Boats 2201 Inshore 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
