Matching a deep vee Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 against a modified vee Nautique 210 2010 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 Nautique 210 2010 measures 21,0 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 19,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 at 2,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 tips the scales at 285 lbs — 247 lbs more than the Nautique 210 2010 at 38 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 343 hp for the Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 and 343 hp for the Nautique 210 2010. 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 carries 27 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Nautique 210 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Nautique 210 2010 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Nautique 210 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Nautique 210 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Nautique 200 Closed Bow 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
