Skeeter 22i 2008 vs Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013: Same Brand, Different Boat

The Skeeter 22i 2008 is a modified-V design and the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Skeeter 22i 2008 at 21,0 ft versus Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 at 20,1 ft. At 1 980 lbs and 1 975 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class - either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Skeeter 22i 2008 has a 185-hp advantage over the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013's 115-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Skeeter 22i 2008 carries 52 gallons versus 34 gallons in the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 5 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.

Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Skeeter 22i 2008 and its 300-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 with its 115-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.

Skeeter 22i 2008 vs Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 - Common Questions

Which is the larger boat - the Skeeter 22i 2008 or the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013?
The Skeeter 22i 2008 is the longer of the two at 21,0 feet overall. The Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 comes in at 20,1 feet, making it roughly 0,9 ft shorter - a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer - the Skeeter 22i 2008 or the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013?
For trailering, the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 has the edge at 1 975 lbs dry weight versus 1 980 lbs for the Skeeter 22i 2008. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
Which boat can handle a bigger outboard?
The Skeeter 22i 2008 is rated to a maximum of 300 hp, giving it the larger power ceiling. The Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 tops out at 115 hp. Keep in mind that maximum ratings are just that - matching the motor to the actual load and usage pattern usually matters more than chasing the ceiling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Skeeter 22i 2008 is Coast Guard rated for 5 passengers, while the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 is certified for 5. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing - on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Which boat is wider, and does it affect trailering?
The Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 measures 99" wide, compared to 94" for the Skeeter 22i 2008. The US standard-width towing limit is 8’6" (102") in most states - anything over that may need a wide-load permit. Confirm your specific route requirements with each state's DOT.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank - the Skeeter 22i 2008 or the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013?
The Skeeter 22i 2008 has the bigger tank at 52 gallons, versus 34 gallons on the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013. That 18-gallon difference translates to roughly 54–90 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.
Are the Skeeter 22i 2008 and Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 from the same manufacturer?
Yes - both the Skeeter 22i 2008 and the Skeeter WX 2000 T 2013 are built by Skeeter. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
