2024 Scarab 195 Wake ID

Step aboard the 195 Wake ID and the first thing you notice is how Scarab uses every inch of space. The wraparound cockpit seating, convertible aft lounge, and deep freeboard make it feel like a bigger boat when you’re hanging out between sets. The helm is clean and modern, with intuitive digital controls for ballast and speed so you can dial in a wake quickly. Jet propulsion means no exposed prop, which your crew will appreciate when they’re in the water hooking up lines. Add in generous in-floor storage for boards, a tower that actually feels solid under pull, and a surprisingly quiet ride, and you’ve got a compact wake machine that still plays the role of social day boat.

In this region’s mix of busy lakes, winding rivers, and shallow coves, the 195 Wake ID’s jet drive is a real advantage, letting you explore skinny water and pull riders without worrying about a prop striking bottom. Its compact footprint makes it easy to trailer to different ramps and simple to store, yet the layout still handles a full crew for weekend sessions. Quick acceleration helps you punch through afternoon chop, while the ballast and wake-tuning tech let you adapt to different water conditions throughout the day. For local boaters who split time between serious riding and relaxed cruising, this model hits a sweet spot of capability and convenience.
