Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 vs Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a v-hull Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 against a modified vee Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 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 Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 measures 38,0 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 14,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 at 24,0 feet (2007). At 31 lbs and 108 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 1 050 hp, the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 has a 750-hp advantage over the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007'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 Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 carries 356 gallons versus 8 gallons in the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 caps at 12. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 38,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 12 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 vs Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 or the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011?
The Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 is the longer of the two at 38,0 feet overall. The Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 comes in at 24,0 feet, making it roughly 14,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 or the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011?
For trailering, the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 has the edge at 31 lbs dry weight versus 108 lbs for the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 is rated to a maximum of 1 050 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 tops out at 300 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that — matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 12 passengers, while the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 is certified for 14. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 measures 128" wide, compared to 98" for the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 or the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011?
The Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 has the bigger tank at 356 gallons, versus 8 gallons on the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007. That 348-gallon difference translates to roughly 1044–1740 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 and Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Everglades Boats 243cc 2007 and the Everglades Boats 350LX 2011 are built by Everglades Boats. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
