When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Triton Boats AV1467 SUV 2011 and the Triton Boats AV1667 SUV 2011 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 AV1467 SUV 2011 at 13,9 ft versus Triton Boats AV1667 SUV 2011 at 16,0 ft. At 235 lbs and 275 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 — 15 hp for the Triton Boats AV1467 SUV 2011 and 20 hp for the Triton Boats AV1667 SUV 2011. 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.
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.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Triton Boats AV1667 SUV 2011 comes in at 14 lbs per hp versus 16 lbs per hp for the Triton Boats AV1467 SUV 2011. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
Bottom line: The Triton Boats AV1667 SUV 2011 at 16,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Triton Boats AV1467 SUV 2011 at 13,9 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
