MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 vs MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 vs MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 150 hp for the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 and 150 hp for the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 is rated for 7 passengers, while the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 18,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.

MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 vs MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 — Common Questions

Which is easier to trailer — the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 or the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007?
For trailering, the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 has the edge at 128 lbs dry weight versus 1 312 lbs for the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 is certified for 7. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 and MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 share an 89 in beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
Are the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 and MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the MirroCraft 1777 Aggressor EXP 2005 and the MirroCraft Dual Impact - 1845 2007 are built by MirroCraft. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
