Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010 vs G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a tunnel G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010 against a deep vee G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010 at 18,1 ft versus G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012 at 16,3 ft. At 85 lbs and 108 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 90 hp for the G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010 and 75 hp for the G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012. 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012 carries 19 gallons versus 12 gallons in the G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 6 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.
Bottom line: The G3 Boats 1860 CCJ DLX 2010 and G3 Boats Angler V164 F 2012 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
