Both the Duckworth 22 2010 and the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 are deep-V designs, both built in aluminium, 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 - Duckworth 22 2010 at 22,0 ft versus Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth 22 2010 tips the scales at 3 310 lbs - 820 lbs more than the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 at 2 490 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 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.
