Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Smoker Craft Infinity A-8522 2005 vs Smoker Craft Pro Mag 182 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Smoker Craft Infinity A-8522 2005 vs Smoker Craft Pro Mag 182 2006 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Smoker Craft Infinity A-8522 2005 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Smoker Craft Pro Mag 182 2006 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Smoker Craft Infinity A-8522 2005 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Smoker Craft Infinity A-8522 2005 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Smoker Craft Pro Mag 182 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
