Matching a deep vee Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008 against a modified vee Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008 measures 17,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 15,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 at 2,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008 tips the scales at 1 275 lbs — 1 171 lbs more than the Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 at 104 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 share a closely matched power ceiling — 135 hp for the Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008 and 125 hp for the Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 could be the deciding factor.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Fisher 2072 CC Blind Duck Edition 2007 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 9 lbs per hp for the Fisher 17 Pro Avenger SC 2008. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
