Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Yamaha AR190 2012 vs Yamaha WaveRunner EX 2023 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Yamaha AR190 2012 vs Yamaha WaveRunner EX 2023 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Yamaha WaveRunner EX 2023 is rated for 37 passengers, while the Yamaha AR190 2012 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Yamaha WaveRunner EX 2023 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Yamaha WaveRunner EX 2023 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 37 passengers and at 123,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Yamaha AR190 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
