Owner Experience Review
Owners use the 348byFOUR WINNSfor family cruising, weekend overnighters, and cockpit socializing, with many stretching to multi-day coastal runs thanks to the generator and air-conditioning setup. Below, the layout with a forward V-berth, a convertible/aft berth, a full galley, and a VacuFlush head works well for couples or small families. Cockpit seating and storage are frequently praised, and at least one owner has remarked that the cabin feels nicer than comparable Sea Ray models.
On the water, reports center on smooth handling, solid cruising pace, and a confident, stable ride in chop. Typical cruising speed is cited around 28 knots, and some owners compare the ride favorably to similar Sea Ray offerings.
Maintenance feedback is mixed. There are documented engine failures on certain boats, including catastrophic connecting-rod events leading to long-block replacements or rebuilds, along with raw-water/cooling issues such as impeller debris, a burst hose from the thermostat housing to the water circulator, and routine exhaust riser/manifold service. Engine access via an electric hatch helps, but some owners have faced costly rebuilds and difficulty sourcing reman Crusader 6.0 blocks; conversely, one owner reports a 2005 example with 6.0 Crusaders and 700 hours running well when well maintained. Some owners have also upgraded or changed engines (e.g., Crusader 6.0) after power or repair issues.
