Matching a deep vee Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 against a modified vee Duckworth Pro 721 2013 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 at 21,0 ft versus Duckworth Pro 721 2013 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth Pacific Navigator 215 SE 2008 tips the scales at 249 lbs — 233 lbs more than the Duckworth Pro 721 2013 at 16 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.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
