Supra Launch 22V 2011 vs Supra Sunsport 21V 2013: A Close Look at Two Modified-V Boats

Both the Supra Launch 22V 2011 and the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 are modified-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so 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 - Supra Launch 22V 2011 at 22,5 ft versus Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 at 21,3 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Supra Launch 22V 2011 tips the scales at 3 800 lbs - 300 lbs more than the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 at 3 500 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 - 325 hp for the Supra Launch 22V 2011 and 345 hp for the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013. 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 - 50 gal and 50 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Supra Launch 22V 2011 is rated for 15 passengers, while the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 caps at 12. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Supra Launch 22V 2011 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Supra Launch 22V 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 15 passengers and at 22,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 12 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Supra Launch 22V 2011 vs Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Supra Launch 22V 2011 or the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013?
The Supra Launch 22V 2011 is the longer of the two at 22,5 feet overall. The Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 comes in at 21,3 feet, making it roughly 1,2 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Supra Launch 22V 2011 or the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013?
For trailering, the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 has the edge at 3 500 lbs dry weight versus 3 800 lbs for the Supra Launch 22V 2011. 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.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 is rated to a maximum of 345 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Supra Launch 22V 2011 tops out at 325 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that - matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Supra Launch 22V 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 15 passengers, while the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 is certified for 12. 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.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Supra Launch 22V 2011 measures 100" wide, compared to 99" for the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states - anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Supra Launch 22V 2011 and Supra Sunsport 21V 2013?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads - 50 gallons and 50 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the Supra Launch 22V 2011 and Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Supra Launch 22V 2011 and the Supra Sunsport 21V 2013 are built by Supra. 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.
