Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Crownline 330 CR 2011 vs Crownline 350 CR 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Crownline 330 CR 2011 against a deep vee Crownline 350 CR 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Crownline 330 CR 2011 at 33,8 ft versus Crownline 350 CR 2013 at 36,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Crownline 350 CR 2013 tips the scales at 165 lbs — 150 lbs less than the Crownline 330 CR 2011 at 15 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 860 hp for the Crownline 330 CR 2011 and 860 hp for the Crownline 350 CR 2013. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Crownline 350 CR 2013 carries 193 gallons versus 141 gallons in the Crownline 330 CR 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 10 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 350 CR 2013 at 36,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Crownline 330 CR 2011 at 33,8 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.
