When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Duckworth 215 2010 and the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 Sterndrive 2012 are deep vee designs with aluminum construction — 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?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Duckworth 215 2010 measures 21,5 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 19,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 Sterndrive 2012 at 2,0 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 Sterndrive 2012 tips the scales at 3 075 lbs — 2 848 lbs less than the Duckworth 215 2010 at 227 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 Duckworth 215 2010 carries a rated maximum of 250 hp. Engine data for the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 Sterndrive 2012 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 62 gal and 62 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

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.
