When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2012 and the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010 are modified vee designs with aluminum construction — 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 1675 Impact Sport 2012 at 16,8 ft versus Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010 at 17,6 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2012 tips the scales at 1 055 lbs — 250 lbs more than the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010 at 805 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 90 hp, the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2012 has a 30-hp advantage over the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010's 60-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 19 gal and 19 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
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.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2012 comes in at 12 lbs per hp versus 13 lbs per hp for the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010. 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.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Lund 1675 Impact Sport 2012 and its 90-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2010 with its 60-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
