ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 vs ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011: A Close Look at Two Modified-V Boats

Both the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 and the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 are modified-V designs, both built in aluminium, 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 - ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 at 22,0 ft versus ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 at 19,0 ft. At 2 300 lbs and 2 400 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 350 hp, the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 has a 100-hp advantage over the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013's 250-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 48 gal and 48 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 6 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.

ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 vs ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 or the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011?
The ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 is the longer of the two at 22,0 feet overall. The ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 comes in at 19,0 feet, making it roughly 3,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 or the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011?
For trailering, the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 has the edge at 2 300 lbs dry weight versus 2 400 lbs for the ThunderJet NE Envoy 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 ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 is rated to a maximum of 350 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 tops out at 250 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 ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 is certified for 5. 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 ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 measures 102" wide, compared to 84" for the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011. 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 ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 and ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads - 48 gallons and 48 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 and ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the ThunderJet Landing Craft CC 22 ft. 2013 and the ThunderJet NE Envoy 2011 are built by ThunderJet. 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.
