Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022 vs Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022 vs Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 700 hp, the Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 has a 400-hp advantage over the Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022's 300-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 carries 312 gallons versus 1 gallons in the Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022. 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 Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Grady-White Freedom 335 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 33,6 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Grady-White Fisherman 236 2022 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
