1994 Prostar 190 versus Prostar 205 Wake
Hey can anyone tell me how a 1994 Prostar's wake compares to a Prostar 205. Is it basically the same hull only additional seats up front? Please reply. Thank you, Joe

Hull is like a foot longer and maybe 100 lbs more. I have not skied the 190 yet. Maybe this summer.
Blue s n s is a great looking boat though. |
Also, the 205 has walk thru, so you lose the ability to put two guys in the observer seat comfortably.
Unless you buy or make a center jumpseat. |

I ski behind my '93 190 and Rats '93 205. I get into -38 off behind both boats and enjoy skiing behind both boats. If you ask what is better I will say mine just because I own it and it is mine. Wake difference is slightly smaller on the 190 and at -22 off the bump is not as bad on the 190. Other than that they are very fine skiing machines. I would buy based off of family size and open bow vs closed. I WOULD NOT BUY OFF OF WAKE PATRERN!!!! They are practically the same. |

I had a 91 - 190 (240hp 1:1)
It had an Acme 541 on it. I loved skiing that thing I kept my prop when I sold it and put the stock 13x13 OJ back on Put the Acme on my 95-205 (LT-1 1:1) and didn't find any real difference in the wake Now I did have a chance to go out with the guy that bought my boat late last fall and I will say that my 205 with the 541 on it has a nicer wake (softer, lower, less rooster tail) than my old 91 with the original OJ on it The only thing I will say is that if you are going out skiing and you buy a 205, stick to the 3 or 4 people total and no one in the bow, at least that is what I found to be the best |
The real difference is in how the boats handle. Advantage: PS190... Both boats ski almost the same... Slight advantage @ 22 off for the 190...
I'd pick the 205 again |
Thanks for all the input! I'm really glad for the heads up on the sidespray off the boom! Thanks!

I'm happy w the 205 as well. Plan to have a while. I just need to get in front of the -22 hump.....
Those 93 metal flake boats sure are pretty though. If I had smaller family or only skied with 3 people max, I would be after the 190. |
