Matching a deep vee Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013 against a pontoon Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 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 Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 2007 measures 26,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 7,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013 at 19,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 2007 tips the scales at 2 294 lbs — 969 lbs less than the Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013 at 1 325 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 — 150 hp for the Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013 and 135 hp for the Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 2007 carries 33 gallons versus 27 gallons in the Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013. 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 Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 2007 is rated for 15 passengers, while the Princecraft Hudson DLX WS 2013 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Versailles 26 LP 2007 could be the deciding factor.
