Sea Ray 200 or Stingray 195

[DanWills]

The Sea Ray is a 2003 200BR and it has like 35 hrs on it. Everything looks great, has the cockpit cover, bow cover, bimini top and it rode great. 5.0 Merc. The Stingray is a 2006 195RL, it rode nice too although it is a lighter boat, it too has several options included. I have a choice to get either one. The Stingray took the waves a little harder than the Sea Ray. The Sea Ray just glides right over them. I'm writing to get some insight from you guys, the much more educated and experienced boaters.... THANKS! BTW, the Stingray has the 4.7 Volvo and a 2+4 year warranty on the engine/drive

Hope you got the Sea Ray - we looked at Stingray too and almost got a 195 but ended up switching at the last minute and the sea ray is a MUCH more stable and smooth riding boat. We've REALLY been happy we didn't end up with the Stingray.

I have a SeaRay, my neighbor has a Stingray cuddy. Both are very nice boats. My neighbor is almost OC when it comes to maintenance and he his boat is in very good condition, I would choose a SeaRay over the Stingray, but you probably already bought one ... so....let us know!

Regards,

Jim
