The Xpress 1650D 2007 vs Xpress X22RESV 2007 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Xpress X22RESV 2007 measures 22,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Xpress 1650D 2007 at 16,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Xpress X22RESV 2007 tips the scales at 192 lbs — 151 lbs less than the Xpress 1650D 2007 at 41 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 115 hp, the Xpress X22RESV 2007 has a 85-hp advantage over the Xpress 1650D 2007's 30-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Xpress X22RESV 2007 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Xpress 1650D 2007 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Xpress X22RESV 2007 could be the deciding factor.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Xpress 1650D 2007 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 2 lbs per hp for the Xpress X22RESV 2007. 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 Xpress X22RESV 2007 is an inflatable design — lighter, easier to store, and quicker to launch from a beach or dock without a slipway. The Xpress 1650D 2007 is a rigid hull, which typically offers a more confident ride in chop and easier maintenance over the long term.
