Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 vs Four Winns H210 SS 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 vs Four Winns H210 SS 2013 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 255 Sundowner 2007 measures 26,0 feet overall (2007), giving it roughly 4,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H210 SS 2013 at 21,3 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 tips the scales at 491 lbs — 137 lbs more than the Four Winns H210 SS 2013 at 354 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Four Winns H210 SS 2013 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns 255 Sundowner 2007 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 26,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H210 SS 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
