Both the Nordic Boats 20 Cyclone SR 2011 and the Nordic Boats 22 Evolution 2012 are modified-V designs, the first built in fibreglass and the second in composite, 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 - Nordic Boats 20 Cyclone SR 2011 at 20,0 ft versus Nordic Boats 22 Evolution 2012 at 22,2 ft. At 3 000 lbs and 3 000 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.
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.
Bottom line: The Nordic Boats 22 Evolution 2012 at 22,2 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Nordic Boats 20 Cyclone SR 2011 at 20,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking - a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
