    2022 EX Deluxe

    My thoughts of the 2022 EX Deluxe. Great for 1 person only. Great on smooth water. Not so great on choppy water. Terrible on rough water. Plenty of power for 1 rider. Great on fuel. Very dependable. 25 hours so far.

    Sx190

    We have 2018 SX 190. Did ribbon delete. We cruise at 6k rpm, 26ish mph, great on fuel. Have only done top speed run a couple times, always in low 40’s GPS. We’re at 400 ft elevation, fresh water only. Usually wife and I. Bimini down. Plenty fast for us.
