Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 vs Four Winns V475 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 vs Four Winns V475 2010 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 Four Winns V475 2010 measures 49,3 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 31,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 at 18,0 feet (2007). At 28 lbs and 3 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Four Winns V475 2010 is rated for 18 passengers, while the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns V475 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns V475 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 18 passengers and at 49,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 vs Four Winns V475 2010 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 or the Four Winns V475 2010?
The Four Winns V475 2010 is the longer of the two at 49,3 feet overall. The Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 comes in at 18,0 feet, making it roughly 31,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 or the Four Winns V475 2010?
For trailering, the Four Winns V475 2010 has the edge at 3 lbs dry weight versus 28 lbs for the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007. 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.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 is Coast Guard rated for 5 passengers, while the Four Winns V475 2010 is certified for 18. 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 Four Winns V475 2010 measures 168" wide, compared to 96" for the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 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.

The Four Winns V475 2010 has the bigger tank at 38 gallons, versus 32 gallons on the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007. That 6-gallon difference translates to roughly 18–30 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Four Winns 183 Horizon Fish and Ski 2007 and Four Winns V475 2010 from the same manufacturer?

That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line.
