Matching a deep vee ProGator 190V 2008 against a modified vee ProGator 200V 2011 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The ProGator 190V 2008 measures 19,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 17,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the ProGator 200V 2011 at 2,0 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the ProGator 190V 2008 tips the scales at 135 lbs — 121 lbs more than the ProGator 200V 2011 at 14 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 225 hp, the ProGator 200V 2011 has a 25-hp advantage over the ProGator 190V 2008's 200-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
Both boats are rated for 5 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The ProGator 190V 2008 at 19,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The ProGator 200V 2011 at 2,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
