When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013 and the Kingfisher 3350 2009 are deep vee designs with aluminum 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 Kingfisher 3350 2009 measures 33,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 15,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013 at 17,5 feet (2013). At 143 lbs and 115 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 700 hp, the Kingfisher 3350 2009 has a 610-hp advantage over the Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013's 90-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013 carries 35 gallons versus 18 gallons in the Kingfisher 3350 2009. 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 Kingfisher 3350 2009 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Kingfisher 3350 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Kingfisher 3350 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 33,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Kingfisher 1725 Flex TL 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
