When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 and the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 are deep 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 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 at 17,6 ft versus Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 at 18,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 tips the scales at 975 lbs — 170 lbs less than the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 60 hp for the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 and 75 hp for the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 19 gal and 19 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 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 Alaskan Tiller 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 18,8 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 1750 Outfitter Tiller 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
