Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 vs AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 vs AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 measures 19,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 10,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 at 8,5 feet (2015). At 143 lbs and 84 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 150 hp, the AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 has a 144-hp advantage over the AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015's 6-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 is rated for 2 passengers, while the AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the AB-Inflatables Lammina 8 AL 2015 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 2 passengers and at 8,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The AB Inflatables 19 DLX - Widebody Bowrider 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
