Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 vs Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 — Which Modified Vee Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 and the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 are modified vee designs with aluminum construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 measures 18,5 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 4,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 at 14,0 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 tips the scales at 335 lbs — 190 lbs less than the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 at 145 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 175 hp, the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 has a 150-hp advantage over the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010's 25-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 Super Pro 185 GL 2011 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 18,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 vs Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 or the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010?
The Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 is the longer of the two at 18,5 feet overall. The Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 comes in at 14,0 feet, making it roughly 4,5 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 or the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010?
For trailering, the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 has the edge at 145 lbs dry weight versus 335 lbs for the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 is rated to a maximum of 175 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 tops out at 25 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 is certified for 4. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 measures 95" wide, compared to 68" for the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Are the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 and Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Princecraft Super Pro 185 GL 2011 and the Princecraft Yukon DL BT 2010 are built by Princecraft. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
