The Four Winns H180 OB 2012 carries a rated maximum of 130 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns H210 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 H180 OB 2012 carries 24 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Four Winns H210 2012.
