Glastron GT 225 2010 vs Glastron SX 195 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Glastron GT 225 2010 vs Glastron SX 195 2006 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Glastron GT 225 2010 at 21,5 ft versus Glastron SX 195 2006 at 19,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Glastron SX 195 2006 tips the scales at 2 785 lbs — 2 782 lbs less than the Glastron GT 225 2010 at 3 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

The Glastron SX 195 2006 tops out at 270 hp. Engine specs for the Glastron GT 225 2010 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 35 gal and 35 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Glastron GT 225 2010 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Glastron SX 195 2006 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Glastron GT 225 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Glastron GT 225 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 10 passengers and at 21,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Glastron SX 195 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Glastron GT 225 2010 vs Glastron SX 195 2006 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Glastron GT 225 2010 or the Glastron SX 195 2006?
The Glastron GT 225 2010 is the longer of the two at 21,5 feet overall. The Glastron SX 195 2006 comes in at 19,0 feet, making it roughly 2,5 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Glastron GT 225 2010 or the Glastron SX 195 2006?
For trailering, the Glastron GT 225 2010 has the edge at 3 lbs dry weight versus 2 785 lbs for the Glastron SX 195 2006. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?
The Glastron SX 195 2006 has a documented max rating of 270 hp. Engine specifications for the Glastron GT 225 2010 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Glastron GT 225 2010 is Coast Guard rated for 10 passengers, while the Glastron SX 195 2006 is certified for 5. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Glastron GT 225 2010 measures 100" wide, compared to 92" for the Glastron SX 195 2006. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states — anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Glastron GT 225 2010 and Glastron SX 195 2006?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 35 gallons and 35 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the Glastron GT 225 2010 and Glastron SX 195 2006 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Glastron GT 225 2010 and the Glastron SX 195 2006 are built by Glastron. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
