When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Starcraft Marine SF 1420 FLB 2010 and the Starcraft Marine SF DLX 168 Pro Troller 2013 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?
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 60 hp, the Starcraft Marine SF DLX 168 Pro Troller 2013 has a 35-hp advantage over the Starcraft Marine SF 1420 FLB 2010's 25-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
Both boats are rated for 5 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Starcraft Marine SF DLX 168 Pro Troller 2013 and its 60-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Starcraft Marine SF 1420 FLB 2010 with its 25-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
