Kingfisher 3050 2009 vs Kingfisher 3325 2013: A Close Look at Two Deep-V Boats

Both the Kingfisher 3050 2009 and the Kingfisher 3325 2013 are deep-V designs, both built in aluminium, so 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?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Kingfisher 3050 2009 at 30,0 ft versus Kingfisher 3325 2013 at 33,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Kingfisher 3325 2013 tips the scales at 11 500 lbs - 3 950 lbs less than the Kingfisher 3050 2009 at 7 550 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 Kingfisher 3325 2013 tops out at 700 hp. Engine specs for the Kingfisher 3050 2009 aren't listed - confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Kingfisher 3325 2013 carries 180 gallons versus 160 gallons in the Kingfisher 3050 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 3325 2013 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Kingfisher 3050 2009 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Kingfisher 3325 2013 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Kingfisher 3325 2013 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 3050 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Kingfisher 3050 2009 vs Kingfisher 3325 2013 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Kingfisher 3050 2009 or the Kingfisher 3325 2013?
The Kingfisher 3325 2013 is the longer of the two at 33,0 feet overall. The Kingfisher 3050 2009 comes in at 30,0 feet, making it roughly 3,0 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Kingfisher 3050 2009 or the Kingfisher 3325 2013?
For trailering, the Kingfisher 3050 2009 has the edge at 7 550 lbs dry weight versus 11 500 lbs for the Kingfisher 3325 2013. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.

How many people can each boat hold?
The Kingfisher 3050 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 9 passengers, while the Kingfisher 3325 2013 is certified for 10. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing - on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Kingfisher 3325 2013 measures 132" wide, compared to 113" for the Kingfisher 3050 2009. 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.

The Kingfisher 3325 2013 has the bigger tank at 180 gallons, versus 160 gallons on the Kingfisher 3050 2009. That 20-gallon difference translates to roughly 60–100 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Kingfisher 3050 2009 and Kingfisher 3325 2013 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Kingfisher 3050 2009 and the Kingfisher 3325 2013 are built by Kingfisher. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
