When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 and the PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011 are pontoon designs with aluminum 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 — PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 at 24,0 ft versus PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011 at 22,0 ft. At 1 775 lbs and 1 775 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 share a closely matched power ceiling — 125 hp for the PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 and 125 hp for the PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011. 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 PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011 carries 103 gallons versus 66 gallons in the PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 is rated for 15 passengers, while the PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the PlayCraft Sunfish 2400 Troller 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 15 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The PlayCraft Ultra 2200 OB 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
