Some advice

[MichaelSB]

Hey all,
My name is Michael, new to the forum. Last year my wife and I joined the boating community with a Crownline 230 CCR. Well we ENJOYED it so much we decided to move up our plans to upgrade about a year to take advantage of prices. We looked at used Rinkers, Sea Rays, Cruisers, Maxums and Four Winns. We pretty much have it narrrowed down and we are really leaning towards an 04 328 Vista. Just looking for some feedback on Four Winns owners on the boat itself...Pros? Cons? Appreciate the insight.

Re: Some advice

good greif, a 328. you must either live by the water and have a boathouse, or leave it moored somewhere. I have a 245 and it is almost too big to tow anywhere. the lake does seem to swallow it up once it gets in.

as far as four winns, love 'em, love the power and speed. but crownline has got to be right there with four winns.
i really like how sturdy and agile the four winns feels in the water but not so much towing it around. Mine is an '03, and it is awesome. I don't like their trailers as much. I think they still make their own trailers, but could be wrong. I have had too many blowouts, and am not so confident as I once was on a long haul.

would buy another four winns if and when the time comes. Have owned and driven cobalts around, and the funny thing, I like my four winns more.
