Matching a deep vee Larson All American 23 2013 against a modified vee Larson FX 1750 SC O/B 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.

Engine specs for the Larson All American 23 2013 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Larson All American 23 2013 carries 32 gallons versus 23 gallons in the Larson FX 1750 SC O/B 2012. 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 Larson FX 1750 SC O/B 2012 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Larson All American 23 2013 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Larson FX 1750 SC O/B 2012 could be the deciding factor.

The Larson All American 23 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
