The SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 vs SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 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.

Which is the larger boat — the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 or the SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005?
The SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 is the longer of the two at 22,0 feet overall. The SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 comes in at 20,1 feet, making it roughly 1,9 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 or the SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005?
For trailering, the SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 has the edge at 87 lbs dry weight versus 119 lbs for the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 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.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?

How many people can each boat hold?
The SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 is certified for 14. 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.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 and SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 share an 95 in beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
Are the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 and SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the SeaArk BayRunner MVT 2013 and the SeaArk Super Jons 2272 MV 2005 are built by SeaArk. 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.
