Matching a deep vee Trophy 163 CC 2010 against a modified vee Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 measures 19,5 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 3,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Trophy 163 CC 2010 at 16,0 feet (2010). At 13 lbs and 19 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 has a 90-hp advantage over the Trophy 163 CC 2010's 60-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 carries 56 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Trophy 163 CC 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 is rated for 5 passengers, while the Trophy 163 CC 2010 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Trophy 1901 Bay Boat 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 5 passengers and at 19,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Trophy 163 CC 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
