Matching a deep vee Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013 against a modified vee Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 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 Resorter DLX SC 2013 measures 16,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 14,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 at 2,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013 tips the scales at 613 lbs — 428 lbs more than the Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 at 185 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 225 hp, the Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 has a 185-hp advantage over the Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013's 40-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013 is rated for 4 passengers, while the Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013 could be the deciding factor.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 comes in at 1 lbs per hp versus 15 lbs per hp for the Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
Bottom line: Choose the Princecraft Resorter DLX SC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 4 passengers and at 16,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Princecraft Super Pro 207 SE 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
