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.

If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Lund 208 Pro-V GL 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 20,7 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Lund UR1648 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
