I think the X-190 would be one of the most fun boats to fish muskies out of made. A big deck, 90" beam and low to the water. I have fished out of many boats and the lower to the water I can fish everything improves for fishing, "ie" netting, figure 8ing, working baits, releasing fish, etc.. The higher I am above the water the more difficult to net, figure 8, work baits, release fish, etc..

I have not been in an 1825 on the water just in a showroom. I would like a longer deck. Even though the side rod locker holds 12' rods, side rod lockers are still not nearly as nice as center rod lockers. The 1825 only holds 8' rods in the center locker.

For trolling a deeper sided boat with a bigger cockpit is a huge advantage and I think the 1825 would be nice for that.
