I spent hours this week on the forums trying to gather info. Anyone have first hand review or opinion on the X-190? Read on for more about me and how I'll use it.

I've been running a Ranger bass boat for a few years and I'm done with only having 2 seats.

So, I'm about to buy a Ranger 619FS...then I realized how much it weighs (both physically and financially). So I think I'll buy a Lund Pro V 1975... then I remember my Lund a few years ago had ZERO dry storage, got blown around in the wind too easily and the front deck is small, not exactly inexpensive either.

I fish mostly Central Wisconsin. Lake Geneva to the Mississippi River to Minoqua. Mostly bass, getting into muskies a little bit. I do some bass tournaments. I'd like to have the option of putting 4 seats in the boat so my kids can come with for fun trips. I have a tight side load garage, so weight is important too as I have to push it in on an reverse angle with an electric dolly. Whew! Sorry for the long post, thanks in advance for any thoughts!

Please call your local dealer. He has one you can look at.

262.206.3045
Ask for Mike

Didn't I give you that number on the phone and tell you he has one to show you? Give Mike a call, he'll take good care of you in your investigation stage through making a buying decision.

Thanks steve, we did Talk, he suggested posting on this site for some opinions fishing out of and living with a Tuffy vs Lund or Ranger. I plan to see the x190 on Sunday, in the meantime I was hoping for some thoughts from the guys on this site that have first hand experience. Look forward to seeing it for sure!

To solve the problem if two seat depends on whether or not you plan to use the removeable rear casting deck or not. If you plan to use it then you will still only have two seats.

The rear deck takes about 3 minutes to remove.

Yes, and a rear deck with flip ups seats creates an even better option in my opinion. Maybe a little more leg room and Less moving seats in/out of bases, or adding/removing the rear deck. Creates flexibility...hope it's in the plans as you stated previously.

Does Tuffy offer rear flip up seats? Didn't see anything on the website mentioning it.
