Ok so I am a wide body champion guy, used to my 206. This is not a best ride topic on boats, I would like to know which boat has the best deck layout and is sturdy. I would like to know about the different 20 foot + Skeeter and Rritons, rangers, etc.

What is the difference in a Skeeter 225, 250 20i and 21i? I get the size but what is the draft difference and beam. Is there a site for comparison?

I am looking for 20ft plus boats. I heard bass cat sits nose high and is tipsy when walking on rear corners. That is what I am interested in.

Thanks for input!

Skeeter

Doubt you'll find "draft" info published on any boats. Stemmed from civil law suite quite a few years back.

Just posting a name is not much help. Would like to know which model and why. All I know it's it seems all skeeters have the same hull, but different layout and electronics. Like a 20i is similar to 250 but has more digital equipment?

And sheeter posts draft on their site for 2019 models, so that old rule may have changed.

Thanks.

Where are the bass cat dudes? Legends?

What I suggest you do is go for a ride in each boat you are considering. Try dealers for a ride or customers with their boat. All owners have the "Best Boat" . My best is a Bullet for the ride, storage, livewell size and fuel efficiency. Some will dispute the ride because of weight, but they have not ridden. If weight had the best ride than Ranger would win, but that is not true. Go for rides and look at layout. Asking in this forum will not give you the answers you are looking for. This is just my thoughts friend

as far as fishing platform goes pretty much all the wide bottom boats do well some of the folks that sacrifice speed for stability still build a few boats but the majority of tournament style boats have gone to more of a wide stance that doesnt rock side to side when a guy changes side of the boat after all if you are buying a fishing boat an on the trolling motor 95% of the time .

Triton TR21 has a HUGE platform. Owned one for 8 years and always had room and never got wet.

My 2018 Skeeter ZX250 is an excellent fishing platform. Very stable in rough water and a maneuverable boat.
I do not know what the draft is but it is very shallow. We fished one area that was so shallow we couldn't use the trolling motor anymore and had to use a push pole.

go to facebook and look at S2 Marine. the new Ballistic is due in here anytime now.

it's HUGE!!!!
