The Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2011 is a modified-V design and the Lund 1775 Crossover XS 2013 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 Impact Sport 2011 at 16,8 ft versus Lund 1775 Crossover XS 2013 at 17,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1775 Crossover XS 2013 tips the scales at 1 450 lbs - 275 lbs less than the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2011 at 1 175 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 150 hp, the Lund 1775 Crossover XS 2013 has a 60-hp advantage over the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2011'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 1775 Crossover XS 2013 carries 26 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 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 1775 Crossover XS 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 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 1775 Crossover XS 2013 could be the deciding factor.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Lund 1775 Crossover XS 2013 comes in at 10 lbs per hp versus 13 lbs per hp for the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2011. 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.
