Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Alumacraft Tournament Pro 170CS 2001 vs Alumacraft VB 1860 AW Tunnel SC 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Alumacraft Tournament Pro 170CS 2001 vs Alumacraft VB 1860 AW Tunnel SC 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The Alumacraft VB 1860 AW Tunnel SC 2013 tops out at 90 hp. Engine specs for the Alumacraft Tournament Pro 170CS 2001 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Alumacraft Tournament Pro 170CS 2001 carries 22 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Alumacraft VB 1860 AW Tunnel SC 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 5 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Alumacraft Tournament Pro 170CS 2001 and Alumacraft VB 1860 AW Tunnel SC 2013 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
