Matching a tunnel Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 against a modified vee Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 at 18,3 ft versus Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010 at 18,7 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010 tips the scales at 155 lbs — 121 lbs less than the Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 at 34 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 150 hp for the Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 and 150 hp for the Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 carries 46 gallons versus 31 gallons in the Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 6 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 Caddo BayStealth 1880 OB Tunnel Hull 2010 and Caddo Rolled Gunnel 190 OB Vee Hull 2010 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.
