Matching a tunnel G3 Boats Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011 against a pontoon G3 Boats V20FC 2013 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 Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011 measures 18,9 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 16,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the G3 Boats V20FC 2013 at 2,0 feet (2013). At 116 lbs and 176 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 115 hp, the G3 Boats Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011 has a 25-hp advantage over the G3 Boats V20FC 2013's 90-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 V20FC 2013 carries 27 gallons versus 21 gallons in the G3 Boats Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011. 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 G3 Boats V20FC 2013 is rated for 11 passengers, while the G3 Boats Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the G3 Boats V20FC 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the G3 Boats V20FC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 2,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The G3 Boats Prop Tunnel 1966 CCT DLX 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
