Matching a modified vee Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009 against a deep vee Alumacraft Trophy 195 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 Trophy 195 2013 measures 19,7 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 3,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009 at 16,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Alumacraft Trophy 195 2013 tips the scales at 1 805 lbs — 1 320 lbs less than the Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009 at 485 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 200 hp, the Alumacraft Trophy 195 2013 has a 160-hp advantage over the Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009's 40-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 Alumacraft Trophy 195 2013 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Alumacraft Trophy 195 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Alumacraft Trophy 195 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 19,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Alumacraft MV 1650 AW 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
