Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lowe A1667WT 2009 vs Lowe SS210 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Lowe A1667WT 2009 against a pontoon Lowe SS210 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lowe SS210 2012 measures 19,7 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 3,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lowe A1667WT 2009 at 16,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lowe SS210 2012 tips the scales at 168 lbs — 124 lbs less than the Lowe A1667WT 2009 at 44 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 115 hp, the Lowe SS210 2012 has a 85-hp advantage over the Lowe A1667WT 2009's 30-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lowe SS210 2012 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Lowe A1667WT 2009 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lowe SS210 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lowe SS210 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 19,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lowe A1667WT 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
