Matching a deep vee Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013 against a modified vee Lund 1800 Sport Angler 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013 at 16,8 ft versus Lund 1800 Sport Angler 2010 at 18,5 ft. At 86 lbs and 146 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 175 hp, the Lund 1800 Sport Angler 2010 has a 100-hp advantage over the Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013's 75-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 1800 Sport Angler 2010 carries 41 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013. 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 Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund 1800 Sport Angler 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1600 Alaskan Tiller 2013 could be the deciding factor.
