Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Duckworth Pro 721 2013 vs Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Duckworth Pro 721 2013 is a modified-V design and the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 is a deep-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 Pro 721 2013 at 21,0 ft versus Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 tips the scales at 3 610 lbs - 2 010 lbs less than the Duckworth Pro 721 2013 at 1 600 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Duckworth Pro 721 2013 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Duckworth Ultra Magnum Inboard 23 ft. 2008 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 Pro 721 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
