Matching a modified vee Everglades Boats 290cc 2007 against a deep vee Everglades Boats 320EX 2009 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 320EX 2009 measures 32,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 4,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Everglades Boats 290cc 2007 at 28,0 feet (2007). At 48 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 700 hp, the Everglades Boats 320EX 2009 has a 100-hp advantage over the Everglades Boats 290cc 2007's 600-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 320EX 2009 carries 288 gallons versus 2 gallons in the Everglades Boats 290cc 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 14 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 Everglades Boats 320EX 2009 at 32,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Everglades Boats 290cc 2007 at 28,0 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.
