Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 vs Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 vs Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005 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 - Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 at 22,0 ft versus Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 tips the scales at 2 092 lbs - 122 lbs more than the Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005 at 1 970 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 125 hp, the Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 has a 30-hp advantage over the Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005's 95-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two.

If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Harris Flotebote Sunliner 220 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 15 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Harris Flotebote Super Sunliner LX 200 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
