Really slick piece of watercraft. Almost looks like a flats boat. 

 

Have you gotten out on the water on it yet? How's it performing?

I just put 11 hours on it sense I got it.  So the SHO is broke in now.  

Its performing awesome!   I'll do 55 at WOT and get 3mpg, I cruise at 40 getting 4mpg and get 5mpg at 30.  Hole shot is twice as fast as my old boat, but that will change a little when I get trolling motor and 3 batteries for it.  It handles big wakes easily ( better than ol blue)  and turns on a dime.   I have more storage than things to put in it for now lol. The only complaint i have is not the boats fault. But not having my electronics and trolling motor is killing right now. I'm hoping to have all that resolved in the next couple of months.

After a few months of searching online I finally got a boat.  It's a skeeter sx 220 with a Yamaha SHO 200.  I literally got it yesterday and still need to break in the sho and get trolling motor and electronics etc.  so for all u guys that knew me in the blue nitro look for me in this. Glad to be fishing soon!!  

Great looking boat! Just seems to have something missing! Yeah Dan the fisherman holding up a big striper! Can't wait to see your fishing results in your new ride.

Considering you have the boat I'll probably get next time......i have boat envy. Lol

Can't wait for an outing.  Especially a striper run. I'll even throw the net if you want. 

After I get my trolling motor and graphs, I'll take u out n e time.
