Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crownline 320 LS 2007 vs Crownline E1 EC 2013: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Crownline 320 LS 2007 vs Crownline E1 EC 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story: intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Crownline 320 LS 2007 measures 32,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 11,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Crownline E1 EC 2013 at 20,5 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Crownline 320 LS 2007 tips the scales at 9 500 lbs - 5 100 lbs more than the Crownline E1 EC 2013 at 4 400 lbs. 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 640 hp, the Crownline 320 LS 2007 has a 340-hp advantage over the Crownline E1 EC 2013's 300-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Crownline 320 LS 2007 carries 139 gallons versus 37 gallons in the Crownline E1 EC 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 9 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Crownline 320 LS 2007 at 32,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Crownline E1 EC 2013 at 20,5 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking - a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
