The Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013 is a deep-V design and the Lund 2150 Baron 2011 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 2150 Baron 2011 measures 21,8 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 3,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013 at 18,5 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 2150 Baron 2011 tips the scales at 2 100 lbs - 300 lbs less than the Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013 at 1 800 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 300 hp, the Lund 2150 Baron 2011 has a 100-hp advantage over the Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013's 200-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Lund 2150 Baron 2011 carries 78 gallons versus 40 gallons in the Lund 186 Tyee GL 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 186 Tyee GL 2013 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Lund 2150 Baron 2011 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 186 Tyee GL 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 8 passengers and at 18,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund 2150 Baron 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
