Yamaha SX190: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Yamaha 190 series, comprising the SX-190 and the AR-190, represents a line of smaller, entry-level boats designed to maximize value for users seeking performance and versatility. Both models share nearly identical specifications and features, with the primary distinction being cosmetic and the presence of a collapsible wakeboard tower on the AR-190. These 19-foot boats are powered by a single engine with jet drive propulsion, offering a shallow draft and maneuverability suitable for water sports and recreational boating.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

Measuring 19 feet 2 inches in length overall with an 8-foot beam, the 190 series boats feature flared topsides that enhance interior cockpit space. The bow area is notably spacious for a boat of this size, with deep storage compartments beneath the seats capable of accommodating items such as skis. A dedicated anchor storage compartment with a locking mechanism is an uncommon but practical inclusion. Safety is addressed with 13-inch high sides and conveniently placed grab handles. The cockpit includes a J-shaped seating arrangement without an engine box intrusion, made possible by Yamaha's low-profile 1812cc four-cylinder four-stroke engine. The aft swim platform is a signature Yamaha design, consisting of two levels separated by nine inches with non-skid surfaces and positioned close to the waterline for easy water access. It includes a three-step reboarding ladder and grab handles, as well as two tow points for water sports.

Helm and Controls

The helm station is straightforward and functional, featuring a basic layout with only two primary gauges: a speedometer and a tachometer. The tachometer incorporates a digital multifunction display that cycles through various engine parameters. Rocker switches with circuit breakers are located beneath a sunscreen above the gauges. Notably, the helm includes a no wake mode and cruise assist feature, allowing for incremental speed adjustments with simple throttle inputs. The steering is directly linked to the jet pump thrust, providing responsive handling at higher speeds but reduced maneuverability at low speeds. A new feature in the jet pump assembly is a thrust deflector that improves low-speed control.

Power and Performance

Powered by a single 1812cc high-output four-stroke Yamaha engine coupled with a 155-millimeter axial flow jet pump featuring a three-bladed stainless steel impeller, the SX-190 delivers impressive performance metrics. The boat achieved a top speed of 43.2 miles per hour at 7400 RPM, consuming 11.9 gallons per hour and yielding a fuel efficiency of 3.65 miles per gallon, which translates to a range of approximately 98 miles. At a more economical cruise speed of 28.4 miles per hour at 6000 RPM, fuel consumption drops to 6.3 gallons per hour with an improved efficiency of 4.5 miles per gallon and a range of 122 miles. The boat planes rapidly, reaching planing speed in 3.3 seconds and accelerating to 30 miles per hour in 6.8 seconds, with minimal bow rise of about five degrees, maintaining good visibility during acceleration. Handling is brisk, with the ability to execute tight turns and quick directional changes, although some speed loss occurs during slow, tight turns.

Water Sports Capability

The 190 series is well-suited for water sports such as wakeboarding. During testing, the boat maintained a straight and stable track while towing a wakeboarder, requiring only minor speed adjustments during turns. At approximately 18 miles per hour, the boat generated sufficient wake to satisfy water sports enthusiasts. The AR-190 model features a collapsible wakeboard tower, enhancing tow point height and convenience, while the SX-190 lacks this tower but retains a tow point at the transom.

Additional Features and Standard Equipment

Yamaha has equipped the 190 series with a comprehensive set of standard features uncommon in this size category. These include a tilt steering wheel, snap-in carpet, stereo system, bimini top, and a painted trailer. The swim platform hatch provides access to a clean-out port for the jet pump impeller, facilitating maintenance. Drink holders are strategically placed in each corner of the cockpit. The boat’s design emphasizes practicality and user convenience without reliance on optional upgrades.

Conclusion

The Yamaha 190 series offers a compelling package for entry-level boaters seeking a versatile, well-equipped, and performance-oriented vessel in the 19-foot range. Its jet drive propulsion, spacious layout, and thoughtful features such as no wake mode and cruise assist enhance usability for both casual cruising and water sports. The differences between the SX-190 and AR-190 are primarily aesthetic and related to the wakeboard tower, allowing buyers to select based on preference without sacrificing core functionality. Overall, the 190 series stands out for delivering substantial value and enjoyable boating experience in a compact footprint.
