Boat measurable differences?

[TS_13]

Does anyone know the measurable differences between a 16ft and 17ft bass tracker? Clearly I know one is a foot longer, but what other differences are there?

Thank you ,

What year? If you're talking about the newer boats, the 175 is wider and has a different hull design. It's a modified v-hull, where as the 16 ft model is more like a flat bottom. Livewell systems are different as the 175 has recirc and pump out, where as the 16 ft model only has an aerator switch with no recirc or pump out. Compartments are laid out different. More storage in the 175, small cooler in the floor, and a trim switch at the bow with recessed trolling motor pedal where as the 16 ft models do not have that.

i am looking at the older models. Early 80's etc. Like the 17ft tournament vs the regular 16.

Oh, ok. I'm not real sure on the older models like that. I work for Tracker Marine Group, but the farthest back I can go to check boat specs is 1999. We just don't see many from the 80's in the shop anymore. I can possibly get you the customer service number for Tracker and someone there may be able to help ya out.

No worries buddy. I see 16ft and 17ft boats and just wanted to know the difference, or how much of a difference there was.

Thanks!
