About the Bay Island 22

The Bay Island 22 is Duffy's high-capacity electric harbour cruiser, using a 9-foot-3-inch beam to create an enclosed interior that feels closer to a small floating lounge than a conventional runabout. It carries twelve people and places the batteries low in the keel to preserve under-seat storage and improve tracking. The Power Rudder system integrates the electric drive with steering for manoeuvring in tight marinas. Inside are movable forward and aft tables, a bar area, lockable bottle storage and provision for an optional refrigerator. The Duff-Eze window enclosure extends usability beyond perfect summer weather. Duffy publishes a six mph maximum, ten hours at cruising speed and four hours at top speed, making the boat appropriate for protected lakes and harbours rather than fast or exposed passages.

Best For

Large-group entertaining on calm protected water
Owners prioritizing interior space and all-weather enclosure

Performance in Context

Duffy states ten hours at cruising speed and four hours at the six mph maximum, noting that runtime varies with speed and load. Windage from the broad enclosure can also affect consumption. Buyers should verify the practical route with the intended passenger load and maintain a battery reserve.

Battery and Charging

The current model uses Duffy's 48 V electric architecture and shore charging. Published pages differ on base configurations and options, so confirm battery type, usable capacity, charger model, input voltage, full-charge time and battery warranty in the final build sheet.

Availability and Pricing

The model page lists $74,900 MSRP, while the online configurator has displayed a lower $68,900 base. Because those official pages conflict, buyers should obtain a dated written quotation. Freight, tax, colours, refrigerator and other options can materially change the delivered price.
