I bought a 2016 2175 pro V new, it was 84,000 USD fully rigged including the 350 L6 and 15 pro kicker. Hopefully it'll last me another 15 years. Great boat.
I'm a tried and tru mercury fan owned the all my life no complaints only praise. Only thing is you can't begin to tell me that it cost that much to build that motor. I had a 19 foot sea hawk that was a work boat 🛥 I crab potted and ordered in it I had a 1986 black max 200 hp and there weren't a pleasure boat or work boat up or down the bay could beat me .but that motor was high enough but even that weren't worth what they cost.
Something that the sales people never say is what the transom is made out of and how long until you have to replace it... The decking also is another issue that I had with my Lund Pro V, both the transom and decking rotted out and I put my foot through the rotted deck, and because of the rotted transom I almost sank my Pro V on the middle of Mille Lacs Lake in central Minnesota... Then my dealer wanted $3,000. to replace the rotted transom with some more of the same wood ... I elected to do as much as I could on my own to save some money, and then drove up to New York Mills, Minnesota where the Lund was made and had them replace the marine grade plywood which is going to rot out again... I wished I had known all this before buying a boat... That is my Lund experience...
@@MontanaWelldiggerNo... I bought it brand new. I drove to the Lund facility to have the work done, if there was a warranty it was long gone by the time the failures occurred. From what I understand is that the new models have synthetic materials that will never rot out. I never knew that rotting transoms and decking was ever a thing... live and learn and BTW it's a 1995 Pro-V Deluxe
$160,000.00 as configured! That's including the plastic tackle boxes, depth/navigation and trolling motor, and kicker. $1,200.00/month for 20 years!))) Order two get $10.00 off!!!!!!!!! ahahah
Sad to say but there are better built boats for cheaper. The price is insane. You can get a fully loaded skeeter wx2200, vexus dvx22 and even a ranger 622fs for 30-40k less with better electronics, hydro jack plates, etc. Sorry man, who in the right mind will pay 160k for a 20ft aluminum boat. I am not sure what Lund is thinking but last year when i was boat shopping and the dealer was Lund/Ranger dealer and i look at the pro v gl, going for 125k, with no electronics and went to the other side and saw a ranger 622fs for 121k, already equipped with two 12in birds, ulterra 72in 112v, and it was a no brainer which one ti buy. Over the course of the summer all the rangers were gone while their floor was full of Lunds. I owned an 18-foot aluminum, and it was a beast but it was still affordable at 30k, now for the same setup, it's 60k.
@@AquaLifestyle it's awesome, except when I have to fill it up. 91 octane into 60 gallons... somehow i wished i got the v8 300hp and not the 400hp L6 supercharged.
Most of the time they make more at the prop than they’re rated for. My merc 150 puts out 163 at the prop. The 175 outs out 193. So more than you’d think and expect.
The people @LundBoatExperience always want to hear from their customers. What would you tell them they need?
To become humble and lower their prices
$160k is eye watering for sure but I can’t say enough about my 1975 Tyee with the 225 Merc. Comfortable, safe, and built like a tank.

The boat market is out of control!
Way way over the top in price and power
More than I paid for my house in 2000.
Mercury is out of control. A V10 outboard. And that's not even the craziest thing Mercury has done.
in 20 years everything went 2.5 in prices, it inflation in this county and amount of dollars prited
That's like stuffing a Cummins 12 liter straight 6 diesel into a Peugot diesel 4 door sedan.

You must have bought a old used boat. Lund has given a lifetime warranty to the original owner since sometime in the 90's I believe.

@@iamthenra1968 must have been just before the current owners put their lifetime warranty on them. Sorry for your trouble.
Lund quality is on par with tracker

When does the 10 footer with 900 hp for $330k come out?
Did he say 160k for a 21’ aluminum fishing boat!! Guess I’m keeping my 2019 Tyee forever wth!
I can get a nice 29 foot Pacifc Skiff alum boat with a t top, outboard, electronics for less. And a 29 footer can go off shore/near shore.
the motor itself can be close to 50k, nonetheless price insanity all over the place
They should just put the tourque on it instead of the current lettering

Hope you are enjoying your Ranger. We will have to do a video soon on a Ranger

@@fongvang935 yeah, we get it.
Lund prices are insane and their quality isn't what it used to be. Now they are making their glass boats in Mexico. Used to make them in the US.
You forgot to mention a Warrior 238 with a 400 on it with a kicker is less than this tin can!
if im paying 160k+ and i have to manually deploy a Bimini top i want a refund.
pro v gl would be top dog
Top speed? 62?
On a very flat day, trimmed correctly
One person
Minimal gear
Maybe
You'd sell alot more if you didn't try to overcharge for it.
Literally out of stock. 🤣
they should build a resort out there for an experiance! ha,
We think that would be a great idea.
Just curious how many real hp does it have
Most of the time they make more at the prop than they’re rated for. My merc 150 puts out 163 at the prop. The 175 outs out 193. So more than you’d think and expect.
Why do you make boats with 12 inch sides?
I know its a heavy boat and not the most hydro-dynamic boat, but that top speed was disappointing..
160k, a lot more than a 1 ton diesel truck costs that has a lot more moving parts, electronics, sensors ...
MY X WIFE WAS $1,500.000 OF 14 YEARS WISH I WENT WITH BOAT
Overpriced by 100k. The concept is awesome the execution not so much.
It's cheaper to buy fish off the trawler 😅
Why would I buy an aluminum boat for a hundred and $160,000 🤔 When I can buy a 24 foot Fiberglass warrior with a 450r on it for 130,000
What a flippin rip off
That boat is clearly overpowered. What does the coastguard placard say on the boat?
Its rated for a 400.
you only need 200-225 hp.
We agree, but the V10 400hp was a great ride.
Way over powered. Chine walk city!
