Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sea Pro 172 Bay 2022 vs Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sea Pro 172 Bay 2022 vs Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 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 Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 tops out at 250 hp. Engine specs for the Sea Pro 172 Bay 2022 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Sea Pro 172 Bay 2022 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sea Pro 228 CC 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sea Pro 172 Bay 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
