The Tige 20i 2007 vs Tige 20V 2009 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Tige 20i 2007 at 2,0 ft versus Tige 20V 2009 at 2,0 ft. At 3 468 lbs and 3 478 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.
The Tige 20i 2007 carries a rated maximum of 400 hp. Engine data for the Tige 20V 2009 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 3 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Tige 20V 2009 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Tige 20i 2007 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Tige 20V 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Tige 20V 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 2,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Tige 20i 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
