Only thing I don't like about Skeeters and I have one are the sponsons. I'm sure they serve a purpose but don't like the looks of them.

That's pretty slick right there

I like them. They serve a purpose. They stabilize the boat They also make backing the boat nearly impossible to keep under control. At least on mine.

That FXR is bad [censored] looking though. I like the interior and the factory speaker locations. This is 2019-2020, I have had to add a radio and speakers to EVERY boat I�ve ever owned. It�s about time a top cap had a spot for a pair of speakers. I also like the slightly wider front portion of the front deck and how the step is cosmetically integrated into the area. Another plus is the gel coated area behind the hot foot. That area gets nasty and that�s where all the dirt, leaves, and used plastics wind up.

I think, for a Skeeter, it�s a well thought out change that doesn�t alienate the Skeeter faithful too much and takes a lot of what some of the newer high end boats are featuring and integrates them nicely. The seats, IMO, may be a little much...but I�ll have to sit in them to see if they are good.

I think the pricing is in line with what a FULLY LOADED top of the line boat is these days. I don�t like it, anymore than anybody else.... but it is what it is. Subtract all the �extras�...ALL OF THEM...and it really isn�t the hull that�s driving up the price. 12� and 16� graphs with full networks, engine data integration, audio system, Ultrex with HDI, hydraulic jack plate, custom colored blades, mounts, etc. That stuff is expensive. Plus the new trailer with new suspension, more expensive wheels and tires, steps, newer fenders, disc brakes. All of that stuff costs money.

I think it�s an A+ for Skeeter.

....and they still have an entry level FXR and ZX series.

The only thing I don't like is the new hull stripe.

Vexus did, too bad they ugly as sin.


I agree, is some color schemes it looks like a ranger in others it looks like another brand I can't put my finger on, may basscat?

whatever...

Good looking boat

Does it come with the eggshell gel coat like mine did?

The new color schemes on those fxrs are sweet. The grey with blue console is the one I will be on the lookout for. I just need one of yall to buy it and in a year or two I will pay a cheap price for it. Lol

I�ll buy one today, if you enter into a contract to buy it from me in two years for $60k! Lol

You must have fell and bumped your head. And i dont even own a Skeeter!

So is there any actual change to the hull or is is just the top cap?

So other then cosmetic are there any changes? Redesigned side graphics. I like those trailer steps before the fender.

I said cheap lol
