i like the design of the 619 better in back - just my opinion. on norms 3rd pic that bar looks definately high enough to trip over and the splashwell does not look level to me. looks like the outer foot or so is elevated compared to more centrally???

any opinion on the 1890 for smaller lakes pulling kids? what speed does it plane at vs a 619? how much water does it push vs the 619. i can tell you from personal experience the 1860 pushes a less water and gets up with a lot less hp than the 619. it gets 25-30% better gas mileage too. how does the 1890 compare to the rangers?

i agree ranger costs extra bucks but there are good deals out there right now on 09 1860's (low 30's new). put a 9 series si hummingbird and 80 terrova and you are looking at 15k less than a 619. not sure what a similar new 1890 with a 175 proxs or 200 opti would go for.
