Matching a modified vee Lund 1750 Fisherman 2008 against a deep vee Lund 1800 Tyee 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 1750 Fisherman 2008 at 17,0 ft versus Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 at 18,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1750 Fisherman 2008 tips the scales at 1 345 lbs — 1 331 lbs more than the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 at 14 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 175 hp, the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 has a 40-hp advantage over the Lund 1750 Fisherman 2008's 135-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 27 gal and 29 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund 1750 Fisherman 2008 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 could be the deciding factor.
