That's easy, the weldbilt is an 80 gauge hull where most others are 100 gauge. I have had a couple 1548 weldbilts and a couple 1552 weldbilts. The 1548 weighs 300 pounds. My Ambush weighs 420 pounds. The advantage of that is that I won't be changing boats again soon. EVERY weldbilt I owned broke welds. The extra weight of the 100 gauge on an Ambush is offset by the hull design, that's why they are called "high performance" hulls, because they are.
Here's a short video of my Ambush maiden voyage. I ran out of propeller, it was on the rev limiter the whole time. This is a hull with me, tank, and battery.
