When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Rinker Captiva 216 BR 2013 and the Rinker Captiva 220 MTX 2013 are deep vee designs with fiberglass 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 — Rinker Captiva 216 BR 2013 at 21,0 ft versus Rinker Captiva 220 MTX 2013 at 22,6 ft. At 4 195 lbs and 4 135 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 10 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.
