Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 vs Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 is a deep-V design and the Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 measures 18,1 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 4,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007 at 14,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 tips the scales at 1 400 lbs - 1 105 lbs more than the Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007 at 295 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 175 hp, the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 has a 140-hp advantage over the Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007's 35-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 1800 Tyee 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 7 passengers and at 18,1 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund SSV 14 Tiller 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
