When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 and the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 are pontoon 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?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 measures 18,0 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 16,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 at 2,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 tips the scales at 155 lbs — 139 lbs less than the Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 at 16 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 — 75 hp for the Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 and 90 hp for the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 29 gal and 29 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 could be the deciding factor.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 comes in at 0 lbs per hp versus 2 lbs per hp for the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013. 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.
Both are 2-tube and 2-tube pontoon designs respectively. Tube diameter and gauge affect stability and load capacity — more so than most buyers realize when comparing on paper.
Bottom line: Choose the Voyager Marine 20 ft. Sport Cruise Deluxe 2013 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 Voyager Marine 18 ft. Hunt & Fish Camo 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
