Hey guys, I'm looking to upgrade my bass boat in novemberish. I have a 2009 stratos 176xt. Right now, I got my eyes dead set on a 2015 skeeter TZX 190.I was told today by a knowledgeable guy that rangers were better because the tzx doesn't have the sam hull design as the fx series.I want the skeeter cause of that hull..is this true? Also, what about the nitro z7, ranger z118c and z118? Any info is greatly appreciated

Not sure where you are, but I'd call the Skeeter dealer to verify that before I moved on.

 

If I were going to buy 'glass, I'd go Skeeter...but a lot of that has to do ith how good our dealer is, and value for $$$.

I've got a Z7 and love it. It's obviously not small but it's not a big boat either, but to me it fishes big. Stable nice deck on it. Pretty smooth ride too. I've always heard skeeters are fast but skip like a rock.

I live in CT. The guy I talked was a guy who does tournaments all over the east. It started cause I asked bout talons or power poles and I told him the boat. I believe they have the same hull design from The tzx to the fx which is why I'd want the skeeter. When people see a ranger, they already know quality. The tzx is at 30k but next year it's going g to 40k to compete with ranger z 118

Mason, I fell In love with the skeeter brand after the BASS elite on the Delaware river in Philly lastyear. I was able to go out a demo of the fx20 and nitro z9. The fx20 was ridiculous!
