When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Sundance B20CCR 2008 and the Sundance B22CC 2009 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Sundance B20CCR 2008 at 19,0 ft versus Sundance B22CC 2009 at 21,8 ft. At 189 lbs and 196 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 130 hp for the Sundance B20CCR 2008 and 115 hp for the Sundance B22CC 2009. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 33 gal and 33 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
Both boats are rated for 6 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Sundance B22CC 2009 at 21,8 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Sundance B20CCR 2008 at 19,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
