Matching a modified vee Weldcraft Marine 18 Renegade 2013 against a deep vee Weldcraft Marine 20 Renegade 2008 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 Weldcraft Marine 18 Renegade 2013 measures 18,1 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 16,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Weldcraft Marine 20 Renegade 2008 at 2,0 feet (2008). At 24 lbs and 25 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 are rated for 6 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.
