The Everglades Boats 350EX 2009 is a deep-V design and the Everglades Boats 350LX 2009 is a modified-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 - Everglades Boats 350EX 2009 at 35,3 ft versus Everglades Boats 350LX 2009 at 38,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Everglades Boats 350EX 2009 tips the scales at 12 300 lbs - 1 500 lbs more than the Everglades Boats 350LX 2009 at 10 800 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 - 1 050 hp for the Everglades Boats 350EX 2009 and 1 050 hp for the Everglades Boats 350LX 2009. 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 Everglades Boats 350EX 2009 carries 382 gallons versus 356 gallons in the Everglades Boats 350LX 2009. 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.
