[QUOTE="sweeney, post: 44056, member: 453"] My buddy bought a zv18 that thing is a tank the boat is so wide i think my 1880 would fit inside it, he has the padded carpet which is great to walk around on. These boats have a lot of great options and really handle waves well for a wide boat, but since you are looking for a 20ft nitro doesn't make one. But the 18 and 21 seem to be getting some decent reviews I enjoy the time fishing in the nitro plenty of room in the boat for sure. They have a nice big livewell plenty of storage and with the jackplate and 18 to 19 pitch enertia fly out of the hole, the only thing it lacks is top speed (47-50) with a 200 opti. That and don't get black on black on black for colors or your sandals may melt to the padded carpet. Personally it comes down to how much you are willing to spend and if you want new used or honestly just the best deal. All these glass boats nowadays seem to have really come around, thus the reason the prices have gotten so crazy. 8 years ago you could buy an 18ft stratos or sylvan with a 200 for 27k put a 150 on it was 25 brand new a skeeter for 36k with a 200 and a kicker, a reatta for 38 with a 150 now just about everything has went up ten g's and the used market is really showing that too. Never thought i'd see 8 year old boats selling for 5 grand less than sold for new. I guess we can thank lund and ranger and extended financing for driving up the markets. [/QUOTE]
