Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Four Winns F244 2008 vs Four Winns H210 SS 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Four Winns F244 2008 against a deep vee Four Winns H210 SS 2012 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 Four Winns F244 2008 measures 25,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 3,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H210 SS 2012 at 21,3 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns H210 SS 2012 tips the scales at 354 lbs — 307 lbs less than the Four Winns F244 2008 at 47 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.
The Four Winns F244 2008 carries a rated maximum of 320 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns H210 SS 2012 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Four Winns F244 2008 carries 65 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Four Winns H210 SS 2012. 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 Four Winns F244 2008 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Four Winns H210 SS 2012 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns F244 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns F244 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 25,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H210 SS 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
