 Post subject: 378 Vista
PostPosted: Fri Apr 27, 2018 1:58 pm 
Hello my fellow Four Winns owners.
My name is Ron I have had a 298 for 10 years. Great boat with lots of power.
I am selling now and looking at the 378 Vista with 8.1 (420 HP).
I have a family of 5 so the 298 is getting small for kids getting bigger.
My question is, is the 378 going to have the power I need and want?
I loved the power in the 298 (5.0's).
Can anyone with the 378 touch on the performance and there opinion?

We are getting ready to put ours on the market.
Pm sent.
The 8.1s is actually 370hp unless they have the HO. I don't think many 378s had HOs, so be sure to confirm.
Not sure what you are asking about as far as power?? This is not a boat you're gonna want to use for pulling toys and such. Not a great top end, BUT the boat runs the same with 2 people or 18 people, plains out, handles, and runs the same. The cockpit and topside are set up for entertaining, lots of open space. It's a big boat that handles bigger water well. Get the electric thottles, so much easy to dock and maneuver. Love the hard top. This boat ride more top heavy, so I think is better to hit the wake head on. It's a nice smooth ride. The only problem I see that with kids on board, sleeping The rear couch folds flat, so a few kids can shrea
