Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 vs Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 vs Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 measures 29,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 7,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 at 22,0 feet (2006). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 tips the scales at 385 lbs — 378 lbs more than the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 at 7 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 600 hp, the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 has a 375-hp advantage over the Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006's 225-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 1 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Century Boats 2901 Center Console 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 29,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Century Boats 2200 Walk Around 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
