Sea Ray Launches SPX 190 and SPX 190 Outboard: A Versatile 19-Foot Entry in the SPX Line

To celebrate its 65th anniversary, Tennessee-based Sea Ray has added two new models to its SPX lineup: the SPX 190 and the SPX 190 Outboard. Both boats measure 19 feet overall with a beam of 8 feet, 4 inches, providing a compact but roomy platform designed for dayboating, watersports and family outings.

Design and Interior Layout

Sea Ray describes these 19-foot models as the ideal entry point into the brand, combining the company’s updated design language with practical layouts. The cockpit is arranged to maximize social space and flexibility. A large L-shaped bench offers comfortable lounge seating for several passengers, while a convertible port seat can switch from forward-facing to aft-facing to suit different activities — socializing, watching a towline, or simply relaxing.

Storage and convenience are part of the package: a cooler is integrated beneath the aft seating for easy access to refreshments, and a substantial sunpad sits at the transom for sunbathing or resting between sessions on the water. The bow features a large U-shaped seating area that, with the optional Comfort Bundle, converts into an additional sunpad — expanding usable lounging space and enhancing onboard comfort for families and friends.

Helm, Technology and Optional Bundles

The helm of both SPX 190 variants includes a digital dashboard that puts essential information within easy view. Owners can personalize their boats with optional packages such as the Entertainment Bundle, which adds audio and convenience upgrades for a better onboard experience. The Comfort Bundle mentioned earlier provides the bow conversion hardware and likely other comfort-focused features to round out the layout for daytime cruising.

Power Options and Watersports Features

Sea Ray offers the SPX 190 in two driveline configurations so buyers can choose the setup that best fits their needs. The sterndrive option pairs the hull with a 200-hp MerCruiser engine and Alpha One drive, while the outboard version is equipped with a single Mercury 115 Pro XS outboard engine. Both power choices are intended to provide a lively, responsive experience on the water while keeping the boat compact and easy to handle.

For watersports enthusiasts, the sterndrive model comes standard with a ski tow point, making it ready for towing skiers or wakeboarders out of the factory. The outboard model offers a ski tow pylon as an option for those who prefer outboard power but still want a dedicated tow point. At the stern, a swim platform and ladder make water access straightforward; sterndrive buyers also have the option to upgrade to a manual submersible step for even easier boarding from the water. Additional options such as a watersports tower and a Bimini top are available to tailor the boat for towing, shade and overall utility.

Who the SPX 190 Is For

The SPX 190 and SPX 190 Outboard are aimed at buyers seeking a compact, modern Sea Ray that balances everyday usability with the capability to entertain and perform watersports. The flexible seating, integrated cooler, convertible sunpads, and multiple optional bundles let owners configure the boat for family days, social cruising, or active watersports, all while offering the choice between sterndrive or outboard propulsion.

Sea Ray positions these 19-foot SPX models as versatile and approachable entries into their broader lineup, delivering the brand’s contemporary styling and user-focused features in a size that’s manageable both on the water and in a marina or trailer yard.
