195s yamaha thoughts

[@richardshaw3768]

Great video. I just purchased my 23 195s. Your video put me over the edge. What a beautiful boat!!

[@epsmith19]

Beautiful boat. Congrats

[@ractaurine]

Nice boat it's really nice to see people on the water

[@alex124241]

Have a deposit on a 2023. I’m up north so I’ll have to wait a few months before having some fun.

[@stusrt]

I have had 1 summer with my 2022 195s. Totally made the right choice. I'm in Michigan, and I wouldn't venture too far into the great lakes with it, but it's perfect for all the inland lakes (which is what I frequent). And great lakes inlights.

[@YZFR1000]

I can't wait to get my 2022 AR 195. I was going to get an ar-210 but the power output is just right with the 195. Really like the interior on your boat 🤙🏻

[@russkielol]

I just got 2016 ar190 and I love mine. If I would upgrade I would get the new one, or if I had a good place to store it I would get a bigger one but I am happy with my ar190

[@redzoom7857]

I plan on ordering 2022 a sx195 in Black Cherry. The quality and bang for the buck Yamaha offers is hard to beat! Some manufacturers I’ve found in my search nickel and dime you for every little option. I do wish it was available with the warm interior like you have as I prefer it over the grey (cool).

[@pistolpete6114]

Hi Garrett quick question. How is the boat with 4 adults and 3 kids when it comes to wake boarding etc? No adult is over 5'10 and kids are two 9 year olds and a 12 year old. Does the engine have enough power? Most times it will be jut 2 adults and 2 kids. I think it will be fine but I need another opinion.

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

Glad you asked the will be fine for cruising but it won't get up to speed like you would think. It will struggle unfortunately pulling tunes with that many ppl. Also the space will be tight. The 25ft is the best bang for the money. If that's gonna be a normal amount of ppl. Don't get anything but the supercharged version in the 19.5 it will not do the job.

[@marconickolasgarces]

Just had 5 adults / 2 teens and my lab with me over Labor Day weekend. My 2021 AR-195 did a top speed of 43MPH with it fully loaded fuel and gear… we pulled the tube just fine. You will only go 15/18 MPH pulling regardless… but otherwise it’s plenty or room and power.

[@geese7484]

Omg you got my dream boat 🛥 so beautiful

[@lucashose5587]

Just put my deposit down on my Yacht Blue 195's! I'm getting mine after watching your videos! Yamaha should give you a kickback!!

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

Lol

[@jonsatvoutdoorchannel6686]

Man I want back and forth for months and months on which one to get between the Yamaha 195s and another boat that’s similar. I got put on a waiting list that would’ve guaranteed me one by June but bc of a couple factors I went with the other boat. I’ll be picking it up next week. But man I’m from Foley and we go out to Robinson Island/Pirates Cove, Fort McRae and other places all the time. Comment back if you’re ever interested in meeting up sometime. Love the boat. I hope I don’t regret not going with it too much haha

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

Hey man what boat did you decide To go with. And yes absolutely let's link up. We may be there this weekend.

[@lanceparra5311]

Nice man! Just picked up a 2021 AR195 in sapphire blue a few months ago. Only was able to take it out once so far but loved it. 100% argee on your likes/dislikes. Have a set of the new thrust vectors ordered for mine as well. Would love to see a video on how you like the low speed steering once you get em' on. Looking forward to more of your content!

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

It got cold here. But im sure you will have yours on by the time I get back out on the water.

[@4212ETD]

I’m still waiting for my 2021 195S with the warm interior. I ordered it in September. Hopefully I hear from the dealer soon.

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

@@4212ETD took me 6 months

[@richardshaw3768]

Do you still the same way about the boat after this time has passed? I love the boat and very excited for next summer!

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

I think the boat is great. But no there are things I need that this boat does not provide in this part of Florida. I'm looking to back to a center console. If I lived on a lake this boat would be alot better.

[@richardshaw3768]

I appreciate it. I live on a lake. Thanks for the reply and thanks for the videos.

[@ryannoonan9753]

@@garrettbrown_gcl8083 what things in particular? Live on the gulf coast, mostly gonna be hoppin around the same spots you are, got a deposit down at the moment on one.

[@BlackBirdieGolf]

Great video pro, why didn't you get the FSH? I'm looking at one of those. I subscribed bro!

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

I wish I had gotten an FSH

[@rcr-zt4of]

What’s your opinion of the boat 2 years later?

[@owengriffin5949]

I’m looking at a Yamaha 19ft or 21ft and can’t decide which one to get

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

Go 21 reccomend

[@JoeyCeribelli]

Whats the top speed with 4 or 5 adult passengers??

[@delhalford7073]

I have an 18 AR195, absolutely love it, and agree with everything you said, TVs will make a HUGE difference with the steering, what size are the kickers you went with, and what amp are you powering them with?

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

8" kickers 300watt JL amp plenty of power.

[@chrisduenas106]

Nice boat! Did you install the amp and kickers yourself? Did you install an extra battery? Easy install?

[@williamurias4593]

Are those Bluetooth speakers Or hardwired in? What did you get for the steering? We just got a 2021 195s haven’t taken out in the water yet hopefully this weekend.

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

They are hardwired.

[@chevy4x466]

Garrett, I ordered my 195s last week. The kickers on the tower really set it off. Should I get the dealer to install, or do it myself? How much did the kicker project run?

[@fittch1374]

What's camera and pole are you using? I can't see it in the video but see the shadow.

[@SatonProduction]

Hey man I live in Daphne.Al did you buy your boat from GSPSmarine in foley?

Fort Walton. K&M

@@garrettbrown_gcl8083 I want to put deposit down on 2022 and can't get them to answer me lol.I know they are super busy but it us crazy

[@dmonzyk9562]

How does it handle weight? Have you been close to the 1600 lb weight?

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

If you don't have the super charger it will be a paper weight. Yes I've had it over capacity its a dog until it gets going. I've switched from this boat back an outboard. But was a good boat to me.

[@rcr-zt4of]

Do you have issues with water in your bilge constantly?

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

I actually do.

[@rcr-zt4of]

@@garrettbrown_gcl8083 Have you identified the issue? I’ve been really interested in the 195S but the water issues from the anchor locker and other areas have me concerned…

[@DumpsterDickRICK]

@@rcr-zt4of I have seen this in a few videos about the yamaha 21/22 models. I hated seeing any water in my ski locker then leaving the boat at the marina for long periods of time without checking on the boat

[@ausgedgallagher]

I was wondering about weed, yeah not that weed :-) Have you had to use the access area to clear weed or other things that may have blocked the intake? Also, do you have much weed that you pass over in your area? - I'm further south in West Palm and there is quite a bit in both salt and fresh water.

[@garrettbrown_gcl8083]

No issues

[@steve447]

I see your gelcoat problem. You're washing it then rubbing it down. You're supposed to smack it up first, then flip it, THEN rub it down. Sweet boat!!!!

[@rustyfilms]

Funny, we put on some Morgan Wallen every time we put in the water;)

[@rustyfilms]

Love our 2020 AR195, so easy to learn and use. Now we're selling on denver craigslist, looking for bigger next year. Nice channel Garrett!!

[@jakewoolard3588]

Ok I have to know. What did you use to film this???

Where did you get your wakeboard tower speakers (kickers)?

Ordered straight from the website my stereo guy did everything I showed up 2 days later. Everything was done and and done well.

Are the stock speakers powered by the amp you bought as well? Or leave them powered by the head unit?
