The Sundance B22 CC 2006 vs Sundance B22CC 2011 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Sundance B22 CC 2006 at 21,0 ft versus Sundance B22CC 2011 at 21,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sundance B22 CC 2006 tips the scales at 1 745 lbs — 1 586 lbs more than the Sundance B22CC 2011 at 159 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 150 hp for the Sundance B22 CC 2006 and 150 hp for the Sundance B22CC 2011. 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Sundance B22 CC 2006 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Sundance B22CC 2011 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Sundance B22 CC 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Sundance B22 CC 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Sundance B22CC 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
