Picked up my AR195 in Waco a few weeks ago and towed it back to San Antonio with my Trailblazer SS. My wife and I have had the boat out at our local lake Canyon Lake twice and so far it has more then lived up to my expectations. Really did not want the bench passenger seat when I was buying the boat but I can say the wife loves it. We really like the entire layout in general so much space and storage its crazy for a 19ft boat! Boat looks amazing on the trailer, in the lake, and even better sitting in my garage. Performance is good once I passed my break in I dropped the hammer it really moves got her up to 52 mph and it was pretty choppy. Fully broken in on a smooth lake I really think 55 mph is doable. I got up on the wake board second time out cruise control works great for both skier and driver and the wake was nice for a lightly loaded boat. Pack a bunch of friends on I bet the wake is perfect for boarding. Looking forward to our next trip out!

Enjoy the pics below!

Make sure you replace your bow roller with a Stoltz one, to avoid scratching your haul.

Thanks for the tip. I did notice some hair line scratches from the stock roller and we have only be out twice. I will be picking one up ASAP.

Really loving the forum great advice from some really great people. This site definitely helped me with my boat purchase.
