Location: Kronenwetter, WI | I'll chime in on this one....I have a 619 and love it for fishing out of...in my opinion the hulls of the 19's 20's 21's can't be beat in big water. (I know, I know, we've beat that horse to death...that's just my opinion).....HOWEVER, that said, I used to run a shallower hull on a Euroline 175 fish and ski and it was better to ski behind than the 619....the 19 pushes ALOT of water with the deeper hull (which is part of what makes it handle well in big water) and therefore creates a bigger wake and the 200 hp evie creates quite a bit of turbulance for some distance out from the boat...that makes skiing and tubing alot less comfortable. Personally, if you truley are looking to do a good amount of tubing and skiing I'd steer away from the big hull of the 619. Does it work? Sure...but I've been behind that hull and a shallower hull and the shallower hulls are MUCH better to ski/tube behind. Think about the ski boats you see Nautics/Moobas etc...they all have shallower hulls for a reason...they are better to be pulled behind....Hope that helps. |
