Four Winns H200 2011 vs Four Winns H215 SS 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Four Winns H200 2011 against a deep vee Four Winns H215 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Four Winns H200 2011 at 19,7 ft versus Four Winns H215 SS 2012 at 21,3 ft. At 307 lbs and 354 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.
The Four Winns H200 2011 carries a rated maximum of 270 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns H215 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 H200 2011 carries 35 gallons versus 4 gallons in the Four Winns H215 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 H215 SS 2012 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Four Winns H200 2011 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns H215 SS 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns H215 SS 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 21,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H200 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
