Four Winns V275 2013 vs Four Winns V475 2013 — Which Deep Vee Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Four Winns V275 2013 and the Four Winns V475 2013 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Four Winns V475 2013 measures 49,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 21,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Four Winns V275 2013 at 28,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Four Winns V275 2013 tips the scales at 763 lbs — 760 lbs more than the Four Winns V475 2013 at 3 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Four Winns V475 2013 is rated for 18 passengers, while the Four Winns V275 2013 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 V475 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Four Winns V475 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 18 passengers and at 49,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Four Winns V275 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Four Winns V275 2013 vs Four Winns V475 2013 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Four Winns V275 2013 or the Four Winns V475 2013?
The Four Winns V475 2013 is the longer of the two at 49,3 feet overall. The Four Winns V275 2013 comes in at 28,0 feet, making it roughly 21,3 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

For trailering, the Four Winns V475 2013 has the edge at 3 lbs dry weight versus 763 lbs for the Four Winns V275 2013. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows.

How many people can each boat hold?
The Four Winns V275 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 1 passengers, while the Four Winns V475 2013 is certified for 18.

The Four Winns V475 2013 measures 168" wide, compared to 11" for the Four Winns V275 2013. 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.
