Sailfish 206 CC 2009 vs Sailfish 220 CC 2013 - Boat Spec Comparison

Q: Which is the larger boat — the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 or the Sailfish 220 CC 2013?

The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 is the longer of the two at 21,3 feet overall. The Sailfish 206 CC 2009 comes in at 2,0 feet, making it roughly 19,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

Q: Which is easier to trailer — the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 or the Sailfish 220 CC 2013?

For trailering, the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 has the edge at 21 lbs dry weight versus 272 lbs for the Sailfish 220 CC 2013. 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.

Q: Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?

The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 is rated to a maximum of 250 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Sailfish 206 CC 2009 tops out at 150 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.

Q: How many people can each boat hold?

The Sailfish 206 CC 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 is certified for 7. 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.

Q: Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?

The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 measures 102" wide, compared to 9" for the Sailfish 206 CC 2009. 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.

Q: Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 or the Sailfish 220 CC 2013?

The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 has the bigger tank at 95 gallons, versus 63 gallons on the Sailfish 206 CC 2009. That 32-gallon difference translates to roughly 96–160 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.

Q: Are the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 and Sailfish 220 CC 2013 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 and the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 are built by Sailfish. 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.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Sailfish 206 CC 2009 vs Sailfish 220 CC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Sailfish 206 CC 2009 against a deep vee Sailfish 220 CC 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 measures 21,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 19,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 tips the scales at 272 lbs — 251 lbs less than the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 at 21 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 250 hp, the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 has a 100-hp advantage over the Sailfish 206 CC 2009's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 carries 95 gallons versus 63 gallons in the Sailfish 206 CC 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sailfish 220 CC 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Sailfish 206 CC 2009 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Sailfish 220 CC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 21,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sailfish 206 CC 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
