You might need a map to navigate the Phoenix front deck.

Anyone near San Antonio have a Skeeter ZXR or Phoenix 920/721 they would let me ride around in? I’d buy your gas/lunch!

Some one out in your neck of the woods is got one coming. He will probably have to change his forum name again though!

It’s worth a try Minner!  Sadly we only have 3 dealerships where MinnerB lives: Skeeter/Phoenix, Tracker marine and BassCat. Not much to choose from for service & warranty purposes.

Like a very well known Skeeter dealer told me a few years back, Skeeter may not be the best boat, but they are the best for the money. They used to be priced well under several other well known comparable boats.
Been seeing a lot of decent deals on late model clean used boats the past few months.
