Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 vs Alumaweld Super Vee LT 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 vs Alumaweld Super Vee LT 2009 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 Alumaweld Super Vee LT 2009 tops out at 115 hp. Engine specs for the Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Alumaweld Super Vee LT 2009 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Alumaweld 18 Talon 2022 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 18,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Alumaweld Super Vee LT 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
