The Grady-White Canyon 336 2007 vs Grady-White Express 360 2009 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Grady-White Express 360 2009 measures 39,3 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 6,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Grady-White Canyon 336 2007 at 33,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Grady-White Express 360 2009 tips the scales at 14 919 lbs — 14 827 lbs less than the Grady-White Canyon 336 2007 at 92 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 1 050 hp, the Grady-White Express 360 2009 has a 350-hp advantage over the Grady-White Canyon 336 2007's 700-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 35 gal and 37 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Grady-White Express 360 2009 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Grady-White Canyon 336 2007 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Grady-White Express 360 2009 could be the deciding factor.
