Matching a modified vee Lund 1650 Rebel 2005 against a deep vee Lund 1775 Impact SS 2013 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 2005 at 16,0 ft versus Lund 1775 Impact SS 2013 at 17,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1650 Rebel 2005 tips the scales at 815 lbs — 698 lbs more than the Lund 1775 Impact SS 2013 at 117 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 125 hp, the Lund 1775 Impact SS 2013 has a 65-hp advantage over the Lund 1650 Rebel 2005's 60-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.

Both boats are rated for 6 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 1775 Impact SS 2013 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 14 lbs per hp for the Lund 1650 Rebel 2005. 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.
