2022 Wellcraft 222 Fisherman

Step aboard and the first thing you notice is how easy this 22-footer is to move around on. The wide walkways around the console, deep cockpit, and tall bow rails give you confidence when the seas get lumpy. The helm layout is clean and modern, with room for a serious multifunction display and gauges right at eye level. Forward, the wraparound seating with removable cushions quickly converts from a casting platform to a comfortable lounge. A real bonus is the head compartment inside the console—great for longer days or when you’ve got family aboard. Tackle drawers, in-floor fish boxes, and a livewell tucked into the leaning post keep the cockpit uncluttered and ready to fish at a moment’s notice.

This 22-foot center console is a sweet spot for local waters where you might jump from skinny channels to open swells in a single trip. The hull has enough deadrise to soften the chop, yet remains efficient and easy to handle for a solo skipper. You can nose into shallow sandbars, work the patch reefs, then push out farther on the right day without feeling under-gunned. Fuel economy with the single outboard makes long runs to productive grounds realistic, while the compact size still slips into most lifts and tight marina slips. It’s a practical, do‑most‑everything platform for anglers and families who split their time between fishing and casual cruising.
