When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Lund 1600 Fury SS 2012 and the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2008 are modified vee designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
The Lund 1600 Fury SS 2012 carries a rated maximum of 40 hp. Engine data for the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2008 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2008 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund 1600 Fury SS 2012 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 2,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 1600 Fury SS 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
