Matching a other Alumacraft Fisherman 160 Tiller 2010 against a modified vee Alumacraft MV 2072 AW FF 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Alumacraft Fisherman 160 Tiller 2010 measures 16,3 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 14,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Alumacraft MV 2072 AW FF 2013 at 2,0 feet (2013).

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.

If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Alumacraft MV 2072 AW FF 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Alumacraft MV 2072 AW FF 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 2,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably.
