Matching a deep vee Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 against a modified vee Lund SSV 16 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 measures 20,5 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 4,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Lund SSV 16 2011 at 16,2 feet (2011). At 12 lbs and 35 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 125 hp, the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 has a 85-hp advantage over the Lund SSV 16 2011's 40-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 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Lund SSV 16 2011 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 2000 Alaskan SS 2013 could be the deciding factor.
