Matching a flat Princecraft PR1852MT 2008 against a pontoon Princecraft Voyageur 21 2013 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 Voyageur 21 2013 measures 21,6 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 3,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft PR1852MT 2008 at 18,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Princecraft Voyageur 21 2013 tips the scales at 1 356 lbs — 881 lbs less than the Princecraft PR1852MT 2008 at 475 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 — 45 hp for the Princecraft PR1852MT 2008 and 60 hp for the Princecraft Voyageur 21 2013. 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 Princecraft Voyageur 21 2013 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Princecraft PR1852MT 2008 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Voyageur 21 2013 could be the deciding factor.
