The Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 is a deep-V design and the Lund 2025 Pro-V 2005 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 at 20,5 ft versus Lund 2025 Pro-V 2005 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Lund 2025 Pro-V 2005 tips the scales at 2 000 lbs - 800 lbs less than the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 at 1 200 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 250 hp, the Lund 2025 Pro-V 2005 has a 125-hp advantage over the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013's 125-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 2025 Pro-V 2005 carries 55 gallons versus 27 gallons in the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 7 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.
