Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
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.
