Matching a modified vee Doral 170 Sunquest 2008 against a deep vee Doral Venezia 2008 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 Doral Venezia 2008 measures 26,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 10,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Doral 170 Sunquest 2008 at 16,0 feet (2008). At 13 lbs and 7 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Doral Venezia 2008 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Doral 170 Sunquest 2008 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Doral Venezia 2008 could be the deciding factor.
