Both the Lund 1650 Renegade Tiller 2011 and the Lund 1875 Pro-V IFS 2012 are modified-V designs, both built in aluminium, so 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?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Lund 1650 Renegade Tiller 2011 at 16,5 ft versus Lund 1875 Pro-V IFS 2012 at 18,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1875 Pro-V IFS 2012 tips the scales at 1 600 lbs - 910 lbs less than the Lund 1650 Renegade Tiller 2011 at 690 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 200 hp, the Lund 1875 Pro-V IFS 2012 has a 150-hp advantage over the Lund 1650 Renegade Tiller 2011's 50-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
Both boats are rated for 5 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.
Bottom line: The Lund 1875 Pro-V IFS 2012 at 18,8 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Lund 1650 Renegade Tiller 2011 at 16,5 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking - a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
