I've had both. Both nice boats, but I have liked the Skeeter better. Also, Skeeter has a better resale percentage in the market.

KVD could fish out of any boat he wanted but he CHOOSES Nitro. That's enough for me. Nitro boats flat out catch more fish. LOL!!! Skeeter: Hey KVD, we will give you X amt of money to use our boat Ranger: Hey KVD, we will give you X amt of money to use our boat Legend: Hey KVD, we will give you X amt of money to use our boat Nitro: Hey KVD, we will give you XXXXXXXXXX amt of money to use our boat KVD: Man, I love my nitro boat!! you get the picture?

I faced this question a couple of months ago. For me it came down to quality and dealer backing and the overall quality of the components so for me Skeeter was the choice.
When I walked into the Nitro dealership I was ignored, but at the Skeeter dealer I received great customer service. Could be just me, but every skeeter dealership I have walked into has been helpful and the service has been quick. That matters.

Are we comparing a used skeeter to a new nitro?
Used boats in general depreciate less than new ones and skeeter will depreciate less than nitro. So on that alone, in case you ever got short on money and had to get rid of it, the used skeeter makes a little more sense.
Either would probably fit your fishing needs just fine.

Which one should I buy??? Such a hard decision! when you get to the lake fork area, give me a call(pm phone)and I will be glad to let you drive my Z-8. I bought it new in 2010 and I drive it like I stole it. You can see for yourself.I don't have a dog in this hunt but i can tell you I'm 100% satisfied w/Nitro.

nitro, and if you shop around it is pushing a 20K difference with the SAME options. I know of one fully loaded, 2HDS 10's dual Powerpoles ect Z9 to sell for 40K. Now go get a ZX20 or I20 for that, you cant do it for less than 55K.
