23K and yall can do what ever you want with it. That is what he owes on it. The boat is like new. Can get a picture if anyone interested. Just to add I helped a bud sell his 2006 Sketter ZX250 w/250HPDI for 25K in 2 weeks during the same time. Had 6 people interested in the Skeeter in 2 weeks. Have had 2 interested in the Nitro in over 1 year.

Have had 2 interested in the Nitro in over 1 year. Let me get this straight. You say the 2007 Nitro w/225hp is worth 23K, And the 2006 Skeeter w/250HP is worth 25K. And assuming that by the discussions in this post the Nitro cost 15 to 20K less than the Skeeter new, and the difference between the 225hp and the 250hp alone is about 3-5k. My math says that the Skeeter owner comes out way behind the Nitro owner or the Nitro owner should be able to drop the price of his boat to 13K and come out the same as the Skeeter as far as investment vs return.

I have a 911cdc w/225 merc and love the thing. I have friend that just bought a new ranger and I love it to. The main difference is hauling cost. The nitro is very heavy, but makes up for it when your on the water in 20-30 mph wind. Ranger handles it as well, just alittle rougher and a lot wetter. he has a 250 merc. and as far as speed goes about 5 mph diff. Nitro has a ton of storage compaired to ranger also. Just my 2 cents.

There is no reason to not buy a Nitro. we are seeing a huge migration of Ranger/skeeter owners moving up into Nitro's with 0 complaints. Like I said it's just old school perception and preferance.

I was very impressed with the amount of storage on the z9 this weekend. It had way more than my skeeter had.

Nitro z9 is an absolute top of the line rig. It offers so much more than the others and once they get over their negitive perceptions of it Ranger/Skeeter are going to have to get competitive on price. IT'S GOOD TO BE THE KING...INDUSTRY WISE.

Hey Purdy, since that Nitro your "BUD" has for sale is not saleable would you consider giveing it to us for a display? JUST ASKING.

I've seen nitros that don't survive the sales floor without damage. I'm sure they've come a long way but to put them on par with ranger is not right.
