Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Skeeter 20i 2013 vs Skeeter ZX 2400 2004 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Skeeter 20i 2013 vs Skeeter ZX 2400 2004 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 250 hp, the Skeeter 20i 2013 has a 225-hp advantage over the Skeeter ZX 2400 2004's 25-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 5 gal and 8 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Skeeter ZX 2400 2004 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Skeeter 20i 2013 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Skeeter ZX 2400 2004 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Skeeter ZX 2400 2004 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 0,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Skeeter 20i 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
