Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3 2022 vs Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3 2022 vs Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 200 hp, the Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 has a 50-hp advantage over the Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3 2022's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3 2022 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sun Tracker Party Barge® 220 XP3 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 25,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
