Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Fisher 1266 Riveted Deep V 2004 vs Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Fisher 1266 Riveted Deep V 2004 vs Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 135 hp, the Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 has a 120-hp advantage over the Fisher 1266 Riveted Deep V 2004's 15-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Fisher 1266 Riveted Deep V 2004 caps at 3. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Fisher 170 Pro Avenger Sport 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 17,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Fisher 1266 Riveted Deep V 2004 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 3 that costs less to run day-to-day.
