Weeres Allure 220 2013 vs Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Weeres Allure 220 2013 vs Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 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 — Weeres Allure 220 2013 at 22,3 ft versus Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 at 22,0 ft. At 214 lbs and 205 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 160 hp, the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 has a 45-hp advantage over the Weeres Allure 220 2013's 115-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 carries 24 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Weeres Allure 220 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 11 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.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 2 lbs per hp for the Weeres Allure 220 2013. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.

The Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 is an inflatable design — lighter, easier to store, and quicker to launch from a beach or dock without a slipway. The Weeres Allure 220 2013 is a rigid hull, which typically offers a more confident ride in chop and easier maintenance over the long term.

Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 and its 160-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Weeres Allure 220 2013 with its 115-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

Weeres Allure 220 2013 vs Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Weeres Allure 220 2013 or the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005?
The Weeres Allure 220 2013 is the longer of the two at 22,3 feet overall. The Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 0,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Weeres Allure 220 2013 or the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005?
For trailering, the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 has the edge at 205 lbs dry weight versus 214 lbs for the Weeres Allure 220 2013. 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 Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 is rated to a maximum of 160 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Weeres Allure 220 2013 tops out at 115 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 Weeres Allure 220 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 11 passengers, while the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 is certified for 11. 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 Weeres Allure 220 2013 measures 102" wide, compared to 96" for the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005. 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.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Weeres Allure 220 2013 or the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005?
The Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 has the bigger tank at 24 gallons, versus 2 gallons on the Weeres Allure 220 2013. That 22-gallon difference translates to roughly 66–110 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Weeres Allure 220 2013 and Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Weeres Allure 220 2013 and the Weeres Suntanner 220 SE Tri-toon 2005 are built by Weeres. 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.
