Matching a deep vee Lund 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013 against a modified vee Lund 1850 Tyee 2011 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 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013 at 16,5 ft versus Lund 1850 Tyee 2011 at 18,5 ft. At 85 lbs and 153 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 200 hp, the Lund 1850 Tyee 2011 has a 110-hp advantage over the Lund 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013's 90-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 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013 carries 19 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Lund 1850 Tyee 2011. 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 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund 1850 Tyee 2011 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1650 Rebel XL SS 2013 could be the deciding factor.
