Interesting that the pics of this 190 are from the factory in Cadillac. The only changes I could see are in the bow area, the pad above the front center seat would be nice. I always wondered why they didn't have them for the last 4+ years.

They keep making the windshield height lower and lower. I'm not a fan. I don't mind the retro look, but they seem to have taken it a little too far. I like everything else, especially the bright colors.

The SS & RS models have lower profile windshields. The standard Horizon models have more typical windshields.

I guess I haven't been paying much attention. :roll: All I ever see is the SS & RS models and assumed they were all like that now. I like having the bigger windshield for wind/rain protection.

I have the SS with low profile windshield and don't get the attraction to them. It was the one feature I didn't and don't like. Tint is good bit not the size...less protection and top rail is always in my way if not standing.

I also don't get the attraction to the graphics. They really look bad in a few years. Then they start to peel off and where you had the graphics its a different shade of gelcoat! Lets start with better quality materials overall and some more practical design (ie tall enough windshield, self bailing, engine compartment that allows you to actually work on the engine, etc). They obviously are pandering to a group of very un-educated boaters....

Luckily, you can still get regular color options on the non-SS/RS models.
