Matching a deep vee Princecraft Resorter DLX BT 2013 against a pontoon Princecraft Versailles 22-2S 2009 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 22-2S 2009 measures 22,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Resorter DLX BT 2013 at 16,0 feet (2013).

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 Versailles 22-2S 2009 could be the deciding factor.
