When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 and the Premier Boats SunSpree 220 RE 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?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Premier Boats SunSpree 220 RE 2011 measures 22,3 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 20,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 at 2,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Premier Boats SunSpree 220 RE 2011 tips the scales at 185 lbs — 163 lbs less than the Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 at 22 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 115 hp, the Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 has a 25-hp advantage over the Premier Boats SunSpree 220 RE 2011's 90-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 3 gal and 2 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Premier Boats SunSpree 220 RE 2011 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Premier Boats Legend 210 RE 2007 could be the deciding factor.
