The Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 is a deep-V design and the Duckworth Pro 723 2013 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 measures 32,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 9,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Duckworth Pro 723 2013 at 23,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 tips the scales at 5 400 lbs - 3 700 lbs more than the Duckworth Pro 723 2013 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 Offshore 30 2013 carries a rated maximum of 500 hp. Engine data for the Duckworth Pro 723 2013 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 carries 130 gallons versus 42 gallons in the Duckworth Pro 723 2013. 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 Offshore 30 2013 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Duckworth Pro 723 2013 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Duckworth Offshore 30 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 9 passengers and at 32,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Duckworth Pro 723 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
