The Lund 1675 Pro Guide Tiller 2010 is a modified-V design and the Lund SSV 18 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 Pro Guide Tiller 2010 at 16,7 ft versus Lund SSV 18 2013 at 18,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1675 Pro Guide Tiller 2010 tips the scales at 1 080 lbs - 620 lbs more than the Lund SSV 18 2013 at 460 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling - 75 hp for the Lund 1675 Pro Guide Tiller 2010 and 60 hp for the Lund SSV 18 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lund SSV 18 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund 1675 Pro Guide Tiller 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 SSV 18 2013 could be the deciding factor.

At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Lund SSV 18 2013 comes in at 8 lbs per hp versus 14 lbs per hp for the Lund 1675 Pro Guide 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.
