Matching a tunnel SeaArk 2072JTPCC Jet Tunnel Pro 2013 against a modified vee SeaArk RXV 176 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — SeaArk 2072JTPCC Jet Tunnel Pro 2013 at 20,1 ft versus SeaArk RXV 176 2013 at 17,5 ft. At 84 lbs and 85 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 90 hp for the SeaArk 2072JTPCC Jet Tunnel Pro 2013 and 75 hp for the SeaArk RXV 176 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.
