Matching a modified vee Klamath 14 ft. Deluxe S 2005 against a deep vee Klamath 21 ft. Baja 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 Klamath 21 ft. Baja 2010 measures 21,3 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 7,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Klamath 14 ft.

Deluxe S 2005 at 2 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

The Klamath 14 ft. Deluxe S 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
