Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010 vs Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010 against a deep vee Lund 1825 Pro Guide 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 1675 Explorer SS 2010 at 16,7 ft versus Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 at 18,3 ft. At 114 lbs and 122 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 90 hp for the Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010 and 90 hp for the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 carries 32 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010. 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 1825 Pro Guide 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 18,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 1675 Explorer SS 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
