Matching a modified vee Boston Whaler 190 Montauk 2008 against a deep vee Boston Whaler 320 Outrage 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Boston Whaler 320 Outrage 2013 measures 32,2 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 13,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Boston Whaler 190 Montauk 2008 at 19,0 feet (2008). At 19 lbs and 85 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 600 hp, the Boston Whaler 320 Outrage 2013 has a 465-hp advantage over the Boston Whaler 190 Montauk 2008's 135-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 6 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Boston Whaler 320 Outrage 2013 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Boston Whaler 190 Montauk 2008 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Boston Whaler 320 Outrage 2013 could be the deciding factor.
