Matching a modified vee G3 Boats Angler V 167 T 2005 against a flat G3 Boats Riveted Jon - 1232 2010 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 G3 Boats Angler V 167 T 2005 measures 16,0 feet overall (2005), giving it roughly 4,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the G3 Boats Riveted Jon - 1232 2010 at 11,9 feet (2010). At 8 lbs and 86 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.
