The Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 vs Lund WC 14 2010 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 measures 19,9 feet overall (2023), giving it roughly 5,4 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund WC 14 2010 at 14,5 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 tips the scales at 1 900 lbs — 1 605 lbs more than the Lund WC 14 2010 at 295 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 200 hp, the Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 has a 175-hp advantage over the Lund WC 14 2010's 25-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 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Lund WC 14 2010 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 189 Pro V GL Sport 2023 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 19,9 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund WC 14 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
