When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 and the Lund 2010 Predator 2013 are deep 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?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 2010 Predator 2013 measures 20,2 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 3,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 at 16,3 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 tips the scales at 862 lbs — 846 lbs more than the Lund 2010 Predator 2013 at 16 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 225 hp, the Lund 2010 Predator 2013 has a 165-hp advantage over the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013's 60-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 Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Lund 2010 Predator 2013 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 1625 Fury XL SS 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 16,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 2010 Predator 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
