Did anyone notice Boattest tested the 2019s but the numbers are identical including 30 gal fuel tanks and the boats pictured in the videos are 2018s?

watching the video, it is a 2018 they are reviewing.

I was trying to figure out range in miles I could travel on mine when I noticed they didn't update to the new AR190

I stopped paying attention to boattest. They have really deteriorated as far as credibility and any accuracy. Too bad.

They have a Video of 2019 AR195 and it looks like the top speed dropped to 48 mph:

Not good. Won't be long before we start seeing threads about 195's not getting over 40 mph in hot weather.

Not sure what the difference is between the 2018 and older models in SX vs AR. I have the 2019 SX 195 and got the boat to 51mph. This is on the display and not confirmed by GPS. To add the water was not glass with minimal waves. This was 50% fuel and 2 people on board.

Edit (12/3/18) to show picture. I stand corrected. 50.1 not 51. Although I think it could be pushed a little faster on ideal condition.

The SX doesn't have the added drag of the Tower and Bimini top. I'm glad to hear it's still over 50 mph.

Nice my 19 sx 190 gets to 42-43 on average but that’s with full fuel on water with minimal waves. GPS showed 39-41, so paddle speedo no that far off

Now they have a Video for 2019 FSH190 with 1.8 NA, top speed 40.9mph at 7400rpm, gives you an idea what 2019 AR190 would do.
