Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 vs G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 vs G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 measures 22,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 2007 at 16,0 feet (2007). At 22 lbs and 61 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 115 hp, the G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 has a 65-hp advantage over the G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 2007's 50-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 4 gal and 6 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 is rated for 12 passengers, while the G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 2007 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the G3 Boats LX 22 DLX 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The G3 Boats Outfitter Jon - 1756WOF 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
