The Lund 1852MT Tiller 2023 vs Lund 1900 Pro-V SE 2009 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Lund 1852MT Tiller 2023 at 17,9 ft versus Lund 1900 Pro-V SE 2009 at 19,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1852MT Tiller 2023 tips the scales at 475 lbs — 302 lbs more than the Lund 1900 Pro-V SE 2009 at 173 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 225 hp, the Lund 1900 Pro-V SE 2009 has a 180-hp advantage over the Lund 1852MT Tiller 2023's 45-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
Both boats are rated for 5 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.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Lund 1900 Pro-V SE 2009 and its 225-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Lund 1852MT Tiller 2023 with its 45-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
