Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Four Winns SL262 2011 vs Four Winns V335 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Four Winns SL262 2011 against a deep vee Four Winns V335 2013 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 V335 2013 measures 33,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 6,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns SL262 2011 at 26,5 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns V335 2013 tips the scales at 1 235 lbs — 676 lbs less than the Four Winns SL262 2011 at 559 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 SL262 2011 carries a rated maximum of 380 hp. Engine data for the Four Winns V335 2013 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 SL262 2011 carries 75 gallons versus 17 gallons in the Four Winns V335 2013. 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 SL262 2011 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Four Winns V335 2013 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Four Winns SL262 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns SL262 2011 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 V335 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
