Matching a modified vee Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007 against a deep vee Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 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 Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 measures 26,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 7,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007 at 19,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007 tips the scales at 1 575 lbs — 1 510 lbs more than the Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 at 65 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 450 hp, the Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 has a 300-hp advantage over the Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 carries 174 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007. 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.
Bottom line: The Mako Boats 264 Walk Around 2007 at 26,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Mako Boats 1901 Tunnel Inshore 2007 at 19,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
