The Robalo R200 2012 vs Robalo R230 Center Console 2022 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 Robalo R200 2012 carries a rated maximum of 200 hp. Engine data for the Robalo R230 Center Console 2022 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 7 gal and 9 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Robalo R200 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Robalo R230 Center Console 2022 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Robalo R200 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Robalo R200 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 20,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
