Monterey 220 EX 2007 vs Monterey 244FSX 2013 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Monterey 220 EX 2007 vs Monterey 244FSX 2013 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 320 hp for the Monterey 220 EX 2007 and 320 hp for the Monterey 244FSX 2013. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Monterey 244FSX 2013 carries 62 gallons versus 5 gallons in the Monterey 220 EX 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Bottom line: The Monterey 244FSX 2013 at 24,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Monterey 220 EX 2007 at 21,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.

The Monterey 244FSX 2013 is the longer of the two at 24,0 feet overall. The Monterey 220 EX 2007 comes in at 21,0 feet, making it roughly 3,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Monterey 220 EX 2007 and Monterey 244FSX 2013 share an 8 ft. 6 in. (2.6 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.

The Monterey 244FSX 2013 has the bigger tank at 62 gallons, versus 5 gallons on the Monterey 220 EX 2007. That 57-gallon difference translates to roughly 171–285 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Monterey 220 EX 2007 and Monterey 244FSX 2013 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Monterey 220 EX 2007 and the Monterey 244FSX 2013 are built by Monterey. 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.
