Matching a flat Lund 1648 2010 against a modified vee Lund 1660 Classic Sport 2007 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 1648 2010 at 15,8 ft versus Lund 1660 Classic Sport 2007 at 16,0 ft. At 42 lbs and 9 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 75 hp, the Lund 1660 Classic Sport 2007 has a 40-hp advantage over the Lund 1648 2010's 35-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
Both boats are rated for 4 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Lund 1660 Classic Sport 2007 comes in at 0 lbs per hp versus 1 lbs per hp for the Lund 1648 2010. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Lund 1660 Classic Sport 2007 and its 75-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Lund 1648 2010 with its 35-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
