The Lund 1750 Tyee 2013 is a deep-V design and the Lund 2000 Alaskan 2005 is a modified-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 1750 Tyee 2013 at 17,5 ft versus Lund 2000 Alaskan 2005 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1750 Tyee 2013 tips the scales at 1 345 lbs - 160 lbs more than the Lund 2000 Alaskan 2005 at 1 185 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 1750 Tyee 2013 has a 25-hp advantage over the Lund 2000 Alaskan 2005's 125-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 27 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 7 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.
