Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 vs Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 vs Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 250 hp, the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 has a 50-hp advantage over the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005's 200-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 carries 24 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007. 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 Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 and its 250-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 with its 200-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 vs Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 — Common Questions

Which is easier to trailer — the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 or the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005?
For trailering, the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 has the edge at 19 lbs dry weight versus 22 lbs for the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007. 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 Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 is rated to a maximum of 250 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 tops out at 200 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 Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 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 Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 measures 101" wide, compared to 95" for the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005. 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 Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 or the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005?
The Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 has the bigger tank at 24 gallons, versus 6 gallons on the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007. That 18-gallon difference translates to roughly 54–90 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 and Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Ranger 2200 Bay Ranger 2007 and the Ranger Z21 COMANCHE SERIES 2005 are built by Ranger. 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.
