Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 vs Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 is a modified-V design and the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 is a deep-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 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 at 18,0 ft versus Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 at 18,3 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 tips the scales at 1 500 lbs - 280 lbs more than the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 at 1 220 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 - 90 hp for the Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 and 90 hp for the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 carries 40 gallons versus 32 gallons in the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 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 1825 Pro Guide 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 6 passengers and at 18,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 1800 Pro-V Tiller 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
