The Sea Ray 370 Venture™ 2013 vs Sea Ray Select 220 2007 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Sea Ray 370 Venture™ 2013 measures 37,2 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 15,2 additional feet of deck space compared to the Sea Ray Select 220 2007 at 22,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Sea Ray 370 Venture™ 2013 tips the scales at 15 432 lbs — 11 282 lbs more than the Sea Ray Select 220 2007 at 4 150 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 300 hp for the Sea Ray 370 Venture™ 2013 and 300 hp for the Sea Ray Select 220 2007. 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 Sea Ray 370 Venture™ 2013 carries 222 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Sea Ray Select 220 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
