Matching a deep vee Lund 186 Pro-V GL 2013 against a modified vee Lund 2010 Pro Guide 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Lund 186 Pro-V GL 2013 at 18,5 ft versus Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2011 at 20,2 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2011 tips the scales at 144 lbs — 126 lbs less than the Lund 186 Pro-V GL 2013 at 18 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 — 200 hp for the Lund 186 Pro-V GL 2013 and 200 hp for the Lund 2010 Pro Guide 2011. 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 4 gal and 4 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
