Matching a modified vee Duckworth 723 2011 against a deep vee Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 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 Duckworth 723 2011 measures 23,0 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 21,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 tips the scales at 2 047 lbs — 2 030 lbs less than the Duckworth 723 2011 at 17 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 Pacific Navigator 200 2009 tops out at 250 hp. Engine specs for the Duckworth 723 2011 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 carries 62 gallons versus 42 gallons in the Duckworth 723 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Duckworth 723 2011 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Duckworth 723 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Duckworth 723 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 23,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Duckworth Pacific Navigator 200 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
