Matching a pontoon Princecraft Versailles 25 2010 against a deep vee Princecraft Xpedition 170 SC 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 Versailles 25 2010 measures 25,8 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 8,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Princecraft Xpedition 170 SC 2013 at 16,9 feet (2013).

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 115 hp for the Princecraft Versailles 25 2010 and 115 hp for the Princecraft Xpedition 170 SC 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Princecraft Versailles 25 2010 carries 31 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Princecraft Xpedition 170 SC 2013.
