Matching a deep vee Skeeter SX 240 2013 against a modified vee Skeeter ZX 24 V 2012 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely 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 SX 240 2013 at 24,1 ft versus Skeeter ZX 24 V 2012 at 24,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Skeeter SX 240 2013 tips the scales at 2 925 lbs — 2 641 lbs more than the Skeeter ZX 24 V 2012 at 284 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 300 hp for the Skeeter SX 240 2013 and 300 hp for the Skeeter ZX 24 V 2012. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Skeeter SX 240 2013 carries 75 gallons versus 8 gallons in the Skeeter ZX 24 V 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 8 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.
