Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 vs Lund WC 12 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 against a modified vee Lund WC 12 2011 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 1825 Pro Guide 2013 measures 18,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 6,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund WC 12 2011 at 12,2 feet (2011). At 122 lbs and 205 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 90 hp, the Lund 1825 Pro Guide 2013 has a 75-hp advantage over the Lund WC 12 2011's 15-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 1825 Pro Guide 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund WC 12 2011 caps at 3. 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 WC 12 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 3 that costs less to run day-to-day.
