Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Four Winns H190RS 2013 vs Four Winns SL262 2013 — Which Deep Vee Fits Your Needs?
When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Four Winns H190RS 2013 and the Four Winns SL262 2013 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Four Winns SL262 2013 measures 26,5 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 7,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H190RS 2013 at 19,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns SL262 2013 tips the scales at 559 lbs — 531 lbs less than the Four Winns H190RS 2013 at 28 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 SL262 2013 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Four Winns H190RS 2013 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 SL262 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns SL262 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 26,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H190RS 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
