I know the 170 (newer) hull is wider and dryer than the old 17. We love ours and think it's a very capable and fuel efficient tuna and yellow tail slayer. You can see some of our adventures (on it) if you visit YouTube and search on WetWillyBiz. Good luck in your search for the boat. Definitely have some one with experience take a survey before you sign on the line.
