Four Winns H220SS 2009 vs Four Winns V275 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a modified vee Four Winns H220SS 2009 against a deep vee Four Winns V275 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 V275 2012 measures 28,0 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 6,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns H220SS 2009 at 22,0 feet (2009). At 37 lbs and 78 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 H220SS 2009 carries a rated maximum of 320 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns V275 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 V275 2012 carries 85 gallons versus 5 gallons in the Four Winns H220SS 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 1 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.

Bottom line: The Four Winns V275 2012 at 28,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Four Winns H220SS 2009 at 22,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.

Four Winns H220SS 2009 vs Four Winns V275 2012 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Four Winns H220SS 2009 or the Four Winns V275 2012?
The Four Winns V275 2012 is the longer of the two at 28,0 feet overall. The Four Winns H220SS 2009 comes in at 22,0 feet, making it roughly 6,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Four Winns H220SS 2009 or the Four Winns V275 2012?
For trailering, the Four Winns H220SS 2009 has the edge at 37 lbs dry weight versus 78 lbs for the Four Winns V275 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 H220SS 2009 has a documented max rating of 320 hp. Engine specifications for the Four Winns V275 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 H220SS 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 1 passengers, while the Four Winns V275 2012 is certified for 1. 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 H220SS 2009 measures 102" wide, compared to 11" for the Four Winns V275 2012. 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 V275 2012 has the bigger tank at 85 gallons, versus 5 gallons on the Four Winns H220SS 2009. That 80-gallon difference translates to roughly 240–400 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Four Winns H220SS 2009 and Four Winns V275 2012 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Four Winns H220SS 2009 and the Four Winns V275 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.
