Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 vs Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 against a modified vee Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 at 18,8 ft versus Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013 tips the scales at 975 lbs — 954 lbs more than the Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 at 21 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 275 hp, the Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 has a 200-hp advantage over the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013's 75-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 carries 78 gallons versus 19 gallons in the Lund 1800 Alaskan Tiller 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
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 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 caps at 6. 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 2150 Baron Gran Sport 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
