Purchasing a new FX over the next week or so and would like any feedback on both models...
Coming out of a ZX250 so I'm used to the size but might like a smaller boat to get around in..
Any input from FX owners would be appreciated!

And no, I don't want a Legend, Nitro or a Basscat before this goes in a hundred different directions.

Thanks!

FX21 maneuvers just fine as far as I can tell. This is my first 21 footer. Prior to that, I had an 18'3" Triton. I haven't found places I couldn't get into that I wanted to get into.

If you have the room and money get the 21.

Both are great boats that fish well. The 20' is like a corvette. I have the 21' and have zero complaints.

Been in both and honestly the differences in handling are little IMHO. The 20 feels a little more responsive...A LITTLE(splitting hairs). The little bit of extra room seems worth it to me especially if you ever fish than two people.

If I had the choice of the two I would say FX21. Just because its bigger.

20'11" versus 20'2". I'd go with the 21.

I really like the 20' Skeeters a lot. Have had a couple that were 21' but for some reason I just like the 20' models a little better. Its just personal preference though.

You won't regret it!
I bought the red LE
It's personal preference but I like the 2016 over the new 2017
