The Lund 1875 Renegade SS 2021 vs Lund U1860 2005 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 1875 Renegade SS 2021 at 18,9 ft versus Lund U1860 2005 at 18,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 1875 Renegade SS 2021 tips the scales at 1 400 lbs — 1 323 lbs more than the Lund U1860 2005 at 77 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 75 hp, the Lund 1875 Renegade SS 2021 has a 25-hp advantage over the Lund U1860 2005's 50-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.
