Does anybody have any experience with skeeter boats that’s willing to give some advice? Specifically a 2014 skeeter zx21. Is there anything I should look for that these boats have issues with? This is going to be my first bass boat purchase. This boat from pictures to me looks to be very clean and only has 150 hours on the 4 stroke Yamaha 250 sho. I have them down to 34k. I’m moving from a 18ft deep v aluminum boat. Do these skeeters ride well in rough conditions? I mainly fish the Great Lakes and lake st Clair but on real windy days i can always switch it up and goto inland lakes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

hell of a deal!!! The only thing with mine is when mounting your transducer to the transom. The sponson sticks out pretty far on the right side on the 2014s. you can buy this little attachment from skeeter that helps in no problem but it can hinder your side scanning to left side only

They also handle waves better than just about any boat ive been in. Those northern waves are much different than down here, but a few of these lakes in the summer time turn into the gulf of mexico with all of the recreation boats. 

Wonderful boats from everyone I know that has skeeters from any year. That boat actually looks pretty dirty to me. Unless its wet the carpet is stained up and the seats and inside that center compartment.  If I personally were spending that much coin on a boat it would have to be detailed and all that good stuff first. As far as the build of the boat or motor goes I'm sure it would exceed most expectations assuming everything on both check out ok. Good luck
