When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 and the Triton Boats 1862 CC 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?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 at 16,0 ft versus Triton Boats 1862 CC 2013 at 18,3 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 tips the scales at 275 lbs — 174 lbs more than the Triton Boats 1862 CC 2013 at 101 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 20 hp for the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 and 25 hp for the Triton Boats 1862 CC 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Triton Boats 1862 CC 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Triton Boats 1862 CC 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Triton Boats 1862 CC 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 18,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Triton Boats 1668 SUV 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
