When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the War Eagle 2072 2013 and the War Eagle 754VS 2013 are flat 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 — War Eagle 2072 2013 at 20,2 ft versus War Eagle 754VS 2013 at 17,6 ft. At 732 lbs and 812 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 War Eagle 754VS 2013 tops out at 60 hp. Engine specs for the War Eagle 2072 2013 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The War Eagle 2072 2013 is rated for 6 passengers, while the War Eagle 754VS 2013 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the War Eagle 2072 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the War Eagle 2072 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 20,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The War Eagle 754VS 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
