The Four Winns V355 2012 is the longer of the two at 35,0 feet overall. The Four Winns H220 SS 2011 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 13,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

For trailering, the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 has the edge at 37 lbs dry weight versus 1 385 lbs for the Four Winns V355 2012.

The Four Winns V355 2012 measures 138" wide, compared to 102" for the Four Winns H220 SS 2011. 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.

The Four Winns H220 SS 2011 has the bigger tank at 5 gallons, versus 2 gallons on the Four Winns V355 2012. That 3-gallon difference translates to roughly 9–15 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.

Q: Are the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 and Four Winns V355 2012 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 and the Four Winns V355 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.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Four Winns H220 SS 2011 vs Four Winns V355 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Four Winns H220 SS 2011 against a deep vee Four Winns V355 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 V355 2012 measures 35,0 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 13,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 at 22,0 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns V355 2012 tips the scales at 1 385 lbs — 1 348 lbs less than the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 at 37 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 H220 SS 2011 carries a rated maximum of 320 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns V355 2012 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 5 gal and 2 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Four Winns V355 2012 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Four Winns H220 SS 2011 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns V355 2012 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns V355 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 35,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns H220 SS 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
