Sea Ray 190 Bowrider
Sea Ray 190 Bowrider
A traditional family runabout designed for an ideal day of fun and sun.

Key Features

    The 190 is available in an open bow version, just right for the whole gang to enjoy a day on the water, or with a closed bow, which allows for a sleeker look and additional stowage forward. The 190 also incorporates Sea Ray’s patented Vented Chine design which enhances the boat’s tracking and alleviates tendencies to skid or slip. Her 8’5”-wide beam is generous for a 19-footer and contributes to the 190’s extraordinary stability.

Sea Ray 190 Bowrider Captain's Report




Plenty of Big Boat Features

Although she’s only 19 feet overall, the 190 incorporates plenty of bigger boat features. For instance, there’s a separate self-draining forward anchor and rode stowage area, complete with locking hatch and her console incorporates the same backlit instrumentation and low-glare blue night lighting that’s seen in many larger Sea Ray models.

Her custom three-piece tinted curved windshield is constructed of shatterproof glass, not plastic or Lexan. A Sunbrella convertible top with an interlocking extrusion is standard. Suggested options are a canvas package that includes an aft curtain, side curtains and a cockpit and tonneau cover.

Performance

With the 190’s deep-V 20-degree transom deadrise, don’t expect a chop to slow you down. Her standard tilt steering is another feature often only seen on larger boats.

The 190’s smorgasbord of engine options range from her standard 190-hp MerCruiser 4.3-liter Alpha One MCM stern drive to 210 and 220 EFI options, right up through a 240-hp, 5.0-liter EFI Alpha One MCM stern drive. A fun option is a single CD player with an amplifier and another suggested option is the starboard windshield wiper.

If you’re going to spend your day out on the water, there are not too many better ways to do it than aboard the 190.
