I have fished out of both and to be honest I did not see any advantages in one over the other. Both had plenty of deck space and storage space. Both where rock soild boats. Both had the speed/ability to get around.

When I fished out of the x-190 the weather wasn't too bad so it wasn't rough so I can't speak to that.

The x-190 I fished out of had a 150 and the owner wished he had a 200.

I compared both very close and the x-190 with a tandem trailer & 200 is much more of a package than the 1760 (w/150) I ended up getting.

If a guy had the cash, large enough boat storage place, and didn't have to worry about moving a tandem axle trailer by hand I am positive the x-190 would be great. But for me the above issues were a concern so I went with the 1760 and have been very pleased.

Which ever one you would get I would strongely recommend the back deck extension. I don't have pictures but I have 10 of the large 3700 series plano boxes that fit really nice in the storage of each side. I put five boxes on edge on each side. I have my baits seperated by box and have each box labeled accordingly. The nice thing is they are all locked up.

My 1760 still has storage compartments that are not full, can fish three guys very well, can handle rough water, is able to stow 8'6" rods in the locker and goes 53 mph if I want to. Plus I can move the trailer by hand and it fits in the garages I have. So it works for me.

I hope this answers your question.

Have a good day.
