Robalo R222: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Robalo R222 is a quality center console and walk-around fishing boat that distinguishes itself primarily through its exceptional ride and handling characteristics. Designed as a versatile fishing platform, this model balances offshore capability with comfort and functionality, making it suitable for a variety of boating environments.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

At the bow, the R222 features two pull-up cleats and a hatch over the anchor locker, complete with anchor keepers. The deck mold is thoughtfully notched to allow the rode to pass through when the hatch is closed. The bow seating area offers wraparound cushioned bolsters that provide a comfortable place to relax, while removing the bow pads reveals a spacious casting deck with a diamond non-skid surface. Beneath the deck are two 30-gallon fish boxes with overboard drains, and a widened opening designed to accommodate a 5-gallon bucket or cast net, which is also plumbed to drain overboard. The stern includes a flip-down bench seat that stows away for fishing, and a comfortable hump seat that doubles as a leaning post with storage underneath. Rod holders are strategically placed under the gunwales, vertically on the console sides, and rocket launchers are mounted on the rear of the optional T-top.

Helm and Control Station

The helm is centrally mounted on the console, requiring some adjustment for a companion to join the captain. It features a tinted windshield that effectively deflects wind without distortion. The dashboard includes two Yamaha digital gauges flanking an open space designed for a map display, with an option for a Garmin 740S 7-inch display. Toggle switches with circuit breakers are conveniently located on both sides of the panel, including a horn switch. The stainless steel steering wheel, an upgrade option, is mounted on a tilt base, paired with a nearly vertical engine control. The standard marine-grade stereo is positioned portside beneath the observer's control. An optional overhead electronics box can be added to the T-top for additional instrumentation.

Fishing Features and Safety

Fishing amenities on the R222 are well thought out, including a 15-gallon livewell behind the leaning post equipped with LED lighting, a blue gelcoat finish, and a directional aerator. Storage and safety are prioritized with grab handles located at the helm, on the T-top supports, and behind the helm seat, allowing secure movement around the boat. The inside of the console is accessed via a forward door, providing 5 feet 5 inches of headroom and space for a standard porta-potty or an optional vacuum flush unit with a 6.5-gallon holding tank. Additional conveniences include a hanging rod and a rubber-matted deck inside the console.

Power and Performance

The Robalo R222 measures 21 feet 6 inches overall with a beam of 8 feet 6 inches and a draft of 34 inches. Its empty weight is approximately 3,200 pounds. During testing with two people aboard and 45 gallons of fuel, the estimated test weight was 3,890 pounds. Powered by a Yamaha F200XP engine turning a 14.5x15 three-blade Reliance propeller, the boat achieved a top speed of 42 miles per hour at 5,800 rpm, consuming 19.45 gallons per hour and providing a range of 175 miles. The optimal cruising speed was 26 miles per hour at 4,000 rpm, reducing fuel consumption to 7.6 gallons per hour and extending the range to 277 miles with a 10% fuel reserve. Acceleration was brisk, reaching planing speed in 3.3 seconds and 30 miles per hour in 10.1 seconds. The steering system required 5.5 turns lock to lock and exhibited typical stiffness, suggesting a steering knob would enhance handling. The boat planes from a 10-degree bow rise and responds well to trim adjustments, maintaining a stable and glued feel through turns with minimal speed loss and no chine walk. In choppy conditions, the 21-degree dead rise hull delivers a dry, smooth ride without pounding or harshness.

Conclusion

The Robalo R222 impresses as a capable and hardworking fishing platform that meets expectations for both offshore and inshore use. Its combination of thoughtful design, safety features, and solid performance make it a versatile choice for anglers seeking a reliable center console boat. The tested 200-horsepower Yamaha engine provided excellent performance, while the boat's rating for up to 250 horsepower offers potential for even greater power. Overall, the R222 stands out as a well-rounded vessel that balances comfort, functionality, and handling.
