I heard they are good and was looking into them myself. I think the difference between the two are single and dual frequencies.

yeah, the 337 has the dual frequency transducer. i think it also has a wider cone angle too.  i'm not sure but i think it might have 4000 watts peak to peak? i know the 332c has 2400.

Put your money on the higher peak to peak watts, the more you have, the better the return.  As far as the dual frequencys, you will pay a little more because one works better in salt water than the other. "It's more dense." "From my understanding."  My 2 cents.   Brian (The Weedwalker)

Wider cone angle is a two edged sword. Great for shallow water, but also remember that what you see on the screen is the average of what's inside that cone, nothing more.  Covering more area would make this potentially even less representative of the real deal.  Undecided
