Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Fisher FX DV 18 2000 vs Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Fisher FX DV 18 2000 vs Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 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 Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 tops out at 90 hp. Engine specs for the Fisher FX DV 18 2000 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 carries 25 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Fisher FX DV 18 2000. 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 Fisher FX DV 18 2000 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Fisher FX DV 18 2000 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Fisher FX DV 18 2000 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 0,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Fisher Pro Hawk 170 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
