When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Key Largo 2100 WA 2013 and the Key Largo 216 2012 are deep vee designs with fiberglass 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?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Key Largo 2100 WA 2013 at 21,0 ft versus Key Largo 216 2012 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Key Largo 216 2012 tips the scales at 195 lbs — 166 lbs less than the Key Largo 2100 WA 2013 at 29 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 share a closely matched power ceiling — 200 hp for the Key Largo 2100 WA 2013 and 200 hp for the Key Largo 216 2012. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Key Largo 2100 WA 2013 carries 85 gallons versus 65 gallons in the Key Largo 216 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

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.
