Four Winns H200SS 2008 vs Four Winns H310 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Four Winns H200SS 2008 against a deep vee Four Winns H310 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 H310 2012 measures 31,3 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 12,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H200SS 2008 at 19,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns H310 2012 tips the scales at 836 lbs — 524 lbs less than the Four Winns H200SS 2008 at 312 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 H200SS 2008 carries a rated maximum of 300 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns H310 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 H200SS 2008 carries 35 gallons versus 13 gallons in the Four Winns H310 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 H310 2012 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Four Winns H200SS 2008 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 H310 2012 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns H310 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 31,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H200SS 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Four Winns H200SS 2008 vs Four Winns H310 2012 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Four Winns H200SS 2008 or the Four Winns H310 2012?
The Four Winns H310 2012 is the longer of the two at 31,3 feet overall. The Four Winns H200SS 2008 comes in at 19,0 feet, making it roughly 12,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Four Winns H200SS 2008 or the Four Winns H310 2012?
For trailering, the Four Winns H200SS 2008 has the edge at 312 lbs dry weight versus 836 lbs for the Four Winns H310 2012. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?
The Four Winns H200SS 2008 has a documented max rating of 300 hp. Engine specifications for the Four Winns H310 2012 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Four Winns H200SS 2008 is Coast Guard rated for 8 passengers, while the Four Winns H310 2012 is certified for 14. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Four Winns H310 2012 measures 116" wide, compared to 1" for the Four Winns H200SS 2008. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Four Winns H200SS 2008 or the Four Winns H310 2012?
The Four Winns H200SS 2008 has the bigger tank at 35 gallons, versus 13 gallons on the Four Winns H310 2012. That 22-gallon difference translates to roughly 66–110 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Four Winns H200SS 2008 and Four Winns H310 2012 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Four Winns H200SS 2008 and the Four Winns H310 2012 are built by Four Winns. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
