Matching a flat G3 Boats 1756 CC DLX 2012 against a modified vee G3 Boats Deluxe Jon - 1966 CCT DLX 2008 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 115 hp, the G3 Boats Deluxe Jon - 1966 CCT DLX 2008 has a 45-hp advantage over the G3 Boats 1756 CC DLX 2012's 70-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the G3 Boats Deluxe Jon - 1966 CCT DLX 2008 carries 21 gallons versus 16 gallons in the G3 Boats 1756 CC DLX 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 5 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.
