My family loves the FSH. We do a fair amount of wake boarding and tubing. Still one of the best features is the changing room and the ease of getting in and out of the water with the swim platform design.

Thanks for the pictures. How are seating arrangements? The SX190 is great for cruising with the family and friends, but not so great for fishing. It works, but looking for some that is easier to fish from and family friendly.
I had the same reservation you had. I had a 19 foot runabout that was OK for hanging out with family but I really wanted something that I could fish with too. The 190 FSH has a lot of room and many family friendly features. The back is a great place to lounge, especially when you throw your tube off the back. Plenty of room up front. Plenty of seating. Plenty of storage. Go for it......you'll never look back. I bought mine this past summer and I'm glad I did. Plenty of good times on the lake.....and I trailer it down to Florida/Alabama as well. It does great in the bay and if the weather is decent, you can still take it offshore......It is the closest boat I could find to the "do everything" boat. You can hang out with family on the lake, swim, and do water sports. You can fish in both Fresh and Saltwater. If you get the sport model, you can remove the T-Top in the winter and fit it in a standard garage........just a lot of positives with this boat.
Unfortunately in my opinion Yamaha has screwed up the rear seating on the 2019 FSH 190. They no longer have the folding jump seats. They are a great feature and self store. If you can find a left over 2018 of go that route. But just my preferred setup.

I agree. I like the folding seats. I was looking at a 2017 with less than 10 hrs on it. I’ll have to wait and see. I may keep the SX190 for another year.
The selling point for me was #1 the changing room, #2 move around the the hull not just a center isle #3 storage #4 looks (no one expects this boat for family FUN) #5 $$$ cost.
Bonus; porta-potty can be easily set up in changing room.
I LOVE my 2021 195 FSH CC Sport
If your family is going to grow by all means then go the 210 FSH or bigger.
2017 with 10hrs on it? I really don't understand that at all. Why even buy a boat...
In our 210 we usually have 5-6 people on board comfortably. Definitely is a very capable fishing platform, that's what I use it for mostly when were not at the sandbar.
