Yamaha new boat release at 11am. It is the 2016 Yamaha 190 FSH - Live Coverage

[JC6275]

If he takes over for Brian Williams....can we even believe he was there?????

At least he didn't say they were under heavy RPG fire on the bus ride there...

 

[Scottintexas]

I think we can believe he is there, it's when we hear the story of "they took me out to the gulf fishing in it and we got chased by pirates" or "we were fishing and I hooked this marlin, had him up to the boat and then he broke the line......" (oh, sorry @MikeyL that type of story may be acceptable on beautiful Lake Oconee?)

 

[Master-Spud]

Huh, interesting for sure, not something I'd pick up but sure there is a large market for it

 

[MikeyL]

NICE Photos, @Murf'n'surf ! So many Thanks @@@@@@@@@

What do you guys think about the raw water wash down? If you are in the bay that would be salt water.

 

[Murf'n'surf]

Starboard side fishing rod holders.

Notice the rubber grommets that allow longer rods to stow into the forward strorge areas



LARGE anchor locker

Two storage areas that are quite large. Under the cushion is a built in cooler.

WIDE ledge to make walking around the entire boat a breeze

Lockable storage at helm

Jet wash button activates the water to flow to the hose at the stern for wash downs

Dual battery storage and battery switches -- note stainless steel shock

 

[Murf'n'surf]

Engine hatch. It lifts the entire helm bench and cooler under the bench.

Clean out plug and bilge access

Rod holders and stereo speakers -- same on port side

Great for washing fish parts off of the boat with an unlimited water supply. I am curious if the wash down water is heated?

 

[Murf'n'surf]

Rear starboard hatch contains the aerated bait well

Starboard flip up seat and storage underneath

Lots of Rod holders in gunnel. Under helm bench cooler

@Murf'n'surf, the storage areas appear to be well finished and sealed. Do you know if Yamaha has reduced the sound levels on this model?

 

[JC6275]

@Murf'n'surf , now is the time to stick a jetboaters.net sticker on the windshield...

 

[Murf'n'surf]

First impression is .... Well done Yamaha! They really hit a homer with this boat. Considering its small size, this boat is full of big features. It does not feel like a 19' boat to me.

I've got more boats to look at so I will elaborate on details a little bit later.

A bigger cc boat may be green lighted if this line sells well.

From looking at the wells I doubt they used any soundproofing. There's just no room.

Watch the video if they post it. I might be 'accicidentally' in the background.

The price point is not bad as compared to others. At the show did they say anything about why this boat is better than any other CC out there? I was curious on the marketing POV.

 

[4x15mph]

Is it sinkable? Can you cut it in half or have the plug blow out and still float?

 

[BigN8]

Wow! The boys that bay fish for Reds and trout in the shallows are going to love these boats!

Really nice pics Murf!!
