The Princecraft Hudson DLX SC 2013 vs Princecraft Voyageur 20 2004 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Princecraft Hudson DLX SC 2013 at 19,0 ft versus Princecraft Voyageur 20 2004 at 20,0 ft.

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 Princecraft Voyageur 20 2004 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Princecraft Voyageur 20 2004 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 13 passengers and at 20,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Princecraft Hudson DLX SC 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
