Matching a deep vee Xpress DVX195 2010 against a modified vee Xpress H22 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.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Xpress DVX195 2010 at 19,5 ft versus Xpress H22 2011 at 22,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Xpress H22 2011 tips the scales at 1 795 lbs — 122 lbs less than the Xpress DVX195 2010 at 1 673 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 250 hp, the Xpress H22 2011 has a 25-hp advantage over the Xpress DVX195 2010's 225-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 3 gal and 3 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
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: The Xpress H22 2011 at 22,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Xpress DVX195 2010 at 19,5 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.
