    Stingray Deck Boat

    Has anyone taken their stingray deck boat out on the ocean? In the bay maybe on a calm day. I’m thinking about it but was gonna get some thoughts from others. I have the 20 foot 192SC.

    Browns Bank Plymouth MA

    Does anyone go to Browns bank in Plymouth? I’m thinking of trying it but don’t wanted to ask someone with experience a few questions. I can’t find any good information out there.

    Suzuki DF140a 4 Blade Prop

    Is anyone running one? I’d like to try it but apparently Suzuki doesn’t make one. For what I use my boat for, tubing, skiiing, cruising, I think a 4 blade may be beneficial. Just wondering if anyone is running one and how they like it and what they are running? How does it compare to the 3...

    192SC Hard To Turn Right

    I have a 21 s192SC with the 140 HP Suzuki and it is hard to turn right. Left no problems but it doesn’t turn nearly as hard when I go right. Any ideas!! Probably will ask the dealer.

    100 inch Beam

    Thanks I’m about to purchase a stingray 192SC with a 100 inch beam and will be mostly towing to the lake and using it for day trips. I don’t want to have to get a wide load permit but it looks like the boat is wider than the trailer. It’s amazing how much information is hard to get when...

    100 inch Beam

    Can I tie a boat with a 100inch beam without is being a wide load? I wonder how much wider the trailer is to accommodate this. I’d hate to have to get a wide load permit to tow my boat.

    Wife Loves the Stingray 192SC

    Oh one more thing, can you negotiate for a new boat or is the price the price. Guy seems to be selling boats like hot cakes, not sure if he’ll move much.

    Wife Loves the Stingray 192SC

    Went to look at a Stingray 198LX today and my wife absolutely loves the 192SC deck boat. Anyone have any experience with this boat and the Suzuki 140HP outboard it comes with. Is this a 40+ MPH boat with plenty of juice for tubing and skiing? Will the deck boat suck it chop? I’m mostly a...

    Considering New Boat

    Thanks , the Regal is highly unlikely because I’ll never be able to see one. I’ve been looking online and Stingray seems like the easiest for me to access. I found a Glastron dealer nearby but the are a little more pricey and there’s a bay liner dealer too which I haven’t seen many good...

    Considering New Boat

    Ok I have looked at the 191DC, that 115 HP outboard is enough? I think that was my deterrent. My current stingray is a 165HP sterndrive and did 46mph with 5 on board in its 31st year. Would the 115 HP be able to hit 40’s?

    Considering New Boat

    Thanks! I’ll look at the 191DC. My early research. stingray would be the most convenient to buy. I can probably find a Tahoe 500TS to look at Regal 1900ES would be buying blind, no chance to look at one locally. I have an 88 stingray SVB 176SS and had it on the water on its 31st year. I...

    Considering New Boat

    Hello, I have a 1988 Stingray SVB 176 SS that has a rotted Transom and I'm thinking of moving on from it. I'm looking for something similar where the vast majority of my boating would be on a small lake (about a mile up and back) and maybe some bigger ones on vacation. It would include water...

    Transom Rotted

    I dropped my boat off at my mechanic for a starting issue and have been informed my boat is taking on water because the transom is rotted. It’s an arm and a leg to fix so I’m pretty much out of the game. The boat is an 1988 stingray SVB 176 how common is this? It was garaged winters the...

    Won’t Turn Over

    2 times out 2 rows in argh. So 2 weeks ago I put my boat in the water, it started right up, like it does in the driveway and ran great for a little over an hour. We stopped to swim and when we went to move nothing happened when I turned the key. I got the boat home and removed the battery...
