Matching a modified vee Princecraft Sport 164 2010 against a pontoon Princecraft Versailles 23 2010 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 23 2010 measures 23,8 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 7,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Sport 164 2010 at 16,5 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Princecraft Versailles 23 2010 tips the scales at 2 225 lbs — 1 217 lbs less than the Princecraft Sport 164 2010 at 1 008 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 115 hp, the Princecraft Versailles 23 2010 has a 25-hp advantage over the Princecraft Sport 164 2010's 90-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Princecraft Versailles 23 2010 carries 31 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Princecraft Sport 164 2010. 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 Sport 164 2010 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Princecraft Versailles 23 2010 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Sport 164 2010 could be the deciding factor.
