The Clearwater 2200 DC 2006 vs Clearwater 2200 WI CC 2007 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Clearwater 2200 DC 2006 at 21,0 ft versus Clearwater 2200 WI CC 2007 at 21,0 ft. At 32 lbs and 32 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 225 hp, the Clearwater 2200 WI CC 2007 has a 25-hp advantage over the Clearwater 2200 DC 2006's 200-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 85 gal and 85 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.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Clearwater 2200 WI CC 2007 and its 225-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Clearwater 2200 DC 2006 with its 200-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
