Bass Cat Caracal is one of the larger 19' class boats and is rated for 225 hp engine. The boat is 10'8" long. As said above it has a wide front deck and rides very good ride and is still able to attain speeds in the mid 70s. Minimum storage area is listed as 21'10". As far as the other Bass Cat in the 19' category and ride alone.......
Pantera 3
Pantera 4
Pantera 2
Bass Cat also has a new hull coming out in a month called a "Classic". It will likely be a larger front decked boat and should ride very well also.

I'm guessing the Ranger Z519 is the same hull as my Z119 and I have had no problems in the 119 in rough water. Real nice boat.

Second on the Caracal. Super wide deck, handles like a dream and very smooth ride.

I've been all over Falcon, Fork and Pines in my 18'8" Nitro Z7. It handles nasty water really well for a boat that size.

Caracal is the only way to go. 19'er than will run with most 20s on a calm day or rough day.
