Xpress DVX195 2011 vs Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008: Same Brand, Different Boat

The Xpress DVX195 2011 is a deep-V design and the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 is a modified-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 - Xpress DVX195 2011 at 19,5 ft versus Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 at 19,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Xpress DVX195 2011 tips the scales at 1 673 lbs - 282 lbs more than the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 at 1 391 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 Xpress DVX195 2011 has a 25-hp advantage over the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 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 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 Xpress DVX195 2011 and its 225-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 with its 200-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

Xpress DVX195 2011 vs Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Xpress DVX195 2011 or the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008?
The Xpress DVX195 2011 is the longer of the two at 19,5 feet overall. The Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 comes in at 19,0 feet, making it roughly 0,5 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Xpress DVX195 2011 or the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008?
For trailering, the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 has the edge at 1 391 lbs dry weight versus 1 673 lbs for the Xpress DVX195 2011. 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.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Xpress DVX195 2011 is rated to a maximum of 225 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 tops out at 200 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that - matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Xpress DVX195 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 6 passengers, while the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 is certified for 6. 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 Xpress DVX195 2011 measures 102" wide, compared to 95" for the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008. 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.
Are the Xpress DVX195 2011 and Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Xpress DVX195 2011 and the Xpress Limited Edition Series - X19LE 2008 are built by Xpress. 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.
