The Duckworth 235 2010 is a deep-V design and the Duckworth Pro 723 2012 is a modified-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 - Duckworth 235 2010 at 23,5 ft versus Duckworth Pro 723 2012 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth 235 2010 tips the scales at 2 490 lbs - 790 lbs more than the Duckworth Pro 723 2012 at 1 700 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 Duckworth 235 2010 carries a rated maximum of 450 hp. Engine data for the Duckworth Pro 723 2012 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Duckworth 235 2010 carries 62 gallons versus 42 gallons in the Duckworth Pro 723 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 7 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 Duckworth 235 2010 and Duckworth Pro 723 2012 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.
