When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Stingray 191RX 2013 and the Stingray 195CS / CX 2013 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Stingray 191RX 2013 at 19,3 ft versus Stingray 195CS / CX 2013 at 19,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Stingray 195CS / CX 2013 tips the scales at 2 734 lbs — 2 713 lbs less than the Stingray 191RX 2013 at 21 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 Stingray 191RX 2013 carries a rated maximum of 140 hp. Engine data for the Stingray 195CS / CX 2013 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 34 gal and 35 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 8 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.
