Saw the new line of boats:

Well I have to say I am not all that impressed. The hype was more than the boat. The new cc is only one foot-6 inches longer. most likely for the new anchor holder. Outside of the new chairs, and the built in wash down and dual battery switch. There is not much difference.
I think I will just keep mine, and add some of those extra features, and save me a bundle.

Was that the new 195 cc you saw? I was just looking at the pictures, and I agree (if it's the 195). I have a '01 186, and I must confess, I like the new aft seats. A larger fuel tank is a bonus, too. But the msrp is almost double of what the 186s sold for. If I win the lottery, hmmmm.......

I saw the new boats in july at the mackfest. I liked them. they had some nice changes over my 03 210. I want the new capt. seats, cushions for the rear seats, the mega hatch cover, and the new mounts for the cooler seat and back. also the new combing bolsters are nicer than the 03 ones.

from what i saw at the Mackfest , the 195 will be a better offshore boat than the 190 if you cant spring the bucks for a 210/215cc. the 186/190 is T H E boat to have if you do the skinny water bays,rivers and gulf of ola. they took the 195s offshore with us 210 guys and it did a good job from what i heard.
if you dont ever plan to go far offshore and the waves are never over 2 feet,the 186/190 is the way to go

Agreed. The 190 Bay is a true fisherman's bay boat.
