What is the difference between the zx200,zx225 and the 20I they all are 20'2" and I know the I class has more bells and whistles.

The I-Class will probably handle rough water a little better and may ride a little better. If I recall correctly the I-Class has a little deeper hull. There are a few more amenities with the I-Class and is geared a little more to creature comforts, yet is a solid performer.
The ZX is more of a "brawler" and is a solid performer. It's probably the most popular Skeeter model. It has a lot of amenties but not like the I-Class and the ride may not be quite what the I-Class is in rough water. It will perform though. Other than that it is size, HP ratings and layouts, seating, consoles etc. After that you will have to consider the model year for the specific details of each.

The ZX200 is not 20'2" it is 19'5". Both of the others are 20'2". The I-class will ride better and has more bells and whistles. ZX is faster hull design

I just traded in my 20 I class and I loved it , And like someone said deeper sides then Zx very good ride, very safe in big water if operated right. Nothin wrong with Zx boats either I've fished out of them also. For the money you cant go wrong with any you've mentioned . The Zx 200 is def better fuel economy with hpdi 200 then the others if 2strokes are on them.

If you would like to find out more about each of the Boats you have listed, I can set up a demo for you at Plano Marine of East Texas. Each one of the boats listed are solid performers, the Zx hull design set the standard for a solid tournament boat. The I class and the Fx hulls each have something different to bring to the table. The most important thing about buying a boat is that you will be happy for years to come with your decision! Bottom line... you can't go wrong with a Skeeter ! Pm me with your info and I will get you set up..

I love my I class and I've not had an issue with it BUT, if I stay with Skeeter the next time I buy a boat I'll probably go back to a ZX model. The touchpads are nice the the I class but the electronics behind them cost a fortune and once it's out of warranty, you're on the hook for a small fortune if it craps out and it controls everything from lights to livewells and everything in between. With the ZX model, it's still switches and relays and once out of warranty you can repair it yourself for pennies on the dollar comparatively speaking.
