Default Formula 330ss vs 370ss

All, I have narrowed it down to the 330ss or 370ss . Both have the 496ho low hours. Is there a big difference between them? All opinions valued

Agreed.

a boat that you think is huge will become very small after the first summer. 37’ will really span the waves better….

good luck!!!!

Depends on your intend usage however it's not just 4 feet longer. The 370 is HUGE compared to a 330. Stand up cabin, stand up bathroom, aft-cabin for sleeping (if you wish). Speeds likely the same. I have a 400ss and sleeping in the aft is awesome. Large, cold, the boat doesn't rock like you feel in the front, and dark enough you don't know if it's storming outside or when the sun comes up!.

We have a 370SS at LOTO and I think that it one of the best LOTO boats out there. Heavy/long enough to handle the slop, but still small enough to maneuver around the docks. All of this while still cruising at 40mph.

Biggest I've seen in one are the 496 MAG's (375 HP).

Nice Thread . Loving the forum so far, knowledgeable people. Hard to come by it seems.

Same, if original. Lots off 330 SS's to the age of needing re-power though, so who knows what people pop in them. 2 or 3 in my area with whippled 496's. Cant imagine why anyone would want to do that, but what the heck!
