When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Duckworth Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2007 and the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 235 2012 are deep vee designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

The Duckworth Pacific Navigator 235 2012 tops out at 450 hp. Engine specs for the Duckworth Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2007 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 235 2012 carries 127 gallons versus 8 gallons in the Duckworth Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2007. 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.
