The Skeeter SL 190 2010 is a modified-V design and the Skeeter WX 1850 2011 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Skeeter SL 190 2010 at 18,4 ft versus Skeeter WX 1850 2011 at 18,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Skeeter WX 1850 2011 tips the scales at 1 800 lbs - 300 lbs less than the Skeeter SL 190 2010 at 1 500 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 175 hp, the Skeeter SL 190 2010 has a 25-hp advantage over the Skeeter WX 1850 2011's 150-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Skeeter WX 1850 2011 carries 40 gallons versus 30 gallons in the Skeeter SL 190 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 6 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: Performance buyers should lean toward the Skeeter SL 190 2010 and its 175-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Skeeter WX 1850 2011 with its 150-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
