Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Skeeter ZX 22 Bay 2007 vs Skeeter ZX 22 Bay T 2008: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Skeeter ZX 22 Bay 2007 is a modified-V design and the Skeeter ZX 22 Bay T 2008 is a tunnel hull 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 ZX 22 Bay 2007 at 21,0 ft versus Skeeter ZX 22 Bay T 2008 at 21,0 ft. At 1 850 lbs and 1 850 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling - 250 hp for the Skeeter ZX 22 Bay 2007 and 250 hp for the Skeeter ZX 22 Bay T 2008. 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 60 gal and 60 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
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.
Bottom line: The Skeeter ZX 22 Bay 2007 and Skeeter ZX 22 Bay T 2008 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
