Matching a deep vee Lund 1775 Impact Sport 2013 against a modified vee Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2009 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 1775 Impact Sport 2013 measures 17,8 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 15,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1775 Impact Sport 2013 tips the scales at 117 lbs — 105 lbs more than the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2009 at 12 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 — 125 hp for the Lund 1775 Impact Sport 2013 and 125 hp for the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2009. 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 — 27 gal and 27 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 6 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 2000 Alaskan SS 2009 comes in at 0 lbs per hp versus 1 lbs per hp for the Lund 1775 Impact Sport 2013. 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.
