Matching a modified vee Bayliner 245 Cruiser 2009 against a deep vee Bayliner 335 Cruiser 2013 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.

That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

Engine data for the Bayliner 335 Cruiser 2013 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Bayliner 335 Cruiser 2013 carries 16 gallons versus 7 gallons in the Bayliner 245 Cruiser 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bayliner 335 Cruiser 2013 could be the deciding factor.
