ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 vs ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008: A Close Look at Two Catamaran Boats

Both the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 and the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 are catamaran designs, both built in fibreglass, 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 - ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 at 21,0 ft versus ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 at 22,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 tips the scales at 3 250 lbs - 1 250 lbs less than the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 at 2 000 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 300 hp, the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 has a 50-hp advantage over the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008's 250-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 carries 170 gallons versus 66 gallons in the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

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: Performance buyers should lean toward the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 and its 300-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 with its 250-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 vs ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 or the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008?
The ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 is the longer of the two at 22,0 feet overall. The ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 comes in at 21,0 feet, making it roughly 1,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 or the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008?
For trailering, the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 has the edge at 2 000 lbs dry weight versus 3 250 lbs for the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 is rated to a maximum of 300 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 tops out at 250 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that - matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 is certified for 6. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing - on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 measures 110" wide, compared to 102" for the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states - anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank - the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 or the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008?
The ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 has the bigger tank at 170 gallons, versus 66 gallons on the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008. That 104-gallon difference translates to roughly 312–520 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 and ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the ProKat 2150 BayKat 2008 and the ProKat 2200 Center Console 2008 are built by ProKat. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
