Matching a modified vee Monterey 320SY 2011 against a deep vee Monterey 340SY 2013 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Monterey 320SY 2011 at 33,8 ft versus Monterey 340SY 2013 at 35,3 ft. At 132 lbs and 147 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 400 hp, the Monterey 340SY 2013 has a 80-hp advantage over the Monterey 320SY 2011's 320-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 18 gal and 21 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
