Decided on a Skeeter for my new boat, but which one, FX ZX 20 -I class ? Chime in on your ideas.

I just got an Fx 21 and it is hands down the best ride I have ever had. Hole shot is amazing. Best rough water boat I have ever drove. Fished on Fork 2 weeks ago and was running 65 in 2-3's. I never left the seat the whole way. My partner runs a Champion and he says it rides smoother than his boat ever thought about running.

Very stable. Not quite as much room on the nose as a ZX or I-class, but not enough to really tell the difference. Where are you located and where are you planning on buying?

I am in Midlothian, just south of Dallas. As far as where I am buying, wherever I get a great deal.

Go with the SHO 250 FX20 or FX21 !! I bought a FX20 last year and its the hottest boat on the market right now. Yamaha SHO 250 is super quiet along with a great ride. I live in Mesquite and had to go out of state to purchase my Skeeter; local dealers were out of sight; saved $8,000.00! Don,t forget Skeeter rebate $2500.00 on FX. Welcome to the BUG CLUB.

that SHO motor has been impressing me. it seems to have a ton of torque. so, when i get my next bullet, it will be a 21ss with a 250SHO. and a 30p 4 blade. might run a hunerd with it.

unless, skeeter will give me a fx20 with a 250sho to play with ..LOL.

I have the FX20/250 SHO Combo and it is an awesome boat. I had a 20i before this one and a zx before that. You will LOVE that rig.
