| Just released pics of Skeeter's MX1825. It's meant to be a multi species boat. 18' 4", Single or dual console and a 50" livewell in the back. No jump seats. I hope to have more info soon. It's supposed to have a very nice looking price tag set up with a 150. It will be a little bit before we get that info yet.

Location: Waukesha Wisconsin | Sweet looking. Keep us posted with updates. Always loved their hull and now I love the openness of this rig. What is the max HP?

| Max will be 200, but they don't recommend putting an outboard that weighs more than 475lbs on the back. The 150 is the perfect match for this boat. I'm thinking a 150 pro xs would be a sweat set-up. If you can find a 175 pro xs, that would be even better. I heard a rumor that it hauls a** with a 200 on the back. 150 should be perfect for it.
From what I hear, they are trying to get it to be under $30,000 with a 150 and all the other bells and whistles except a kicker and electronics. It's supposed to be a price point boat. Lots of bang for your buck. Pricing will be a little bit yet. I need to see it in person before I can make my final decision on it. From what I see, it should be a nice set-up for the Bago system without breaking the bank. |

| How long are the rod lockers on the bow? and on the side storage? Looks like 6 combos fit in the side storage, correct?
Can you get a 200hp on it with an 8hp kicker?
I really love the new layout, especially the back deck. Thanks for any info. |

| The bow rod locker will take 7'6" rods with ease and possibly a 7'10" or 8'. Yes 6 in the side and up to a 12' rod. you can get a 200hp and a 8 or 9.9 kicker. |

| Anchor Marine in Appleton, WI, has a dual console one in their showroom with a 200 hpdi. I guess it is their demo boat. I mention this because I know there are people out there that want to see one in person. |

| I saw another post on other site, that Skeeter has a 20 foot MX in the build stage to be ready for the spring boat shows! |

| Anyone that wants to test drive the new MX1825, should head down to Mr. Marine of Fond du Lac Friday or Saturday. They will have one with a 175 opti on the back to test drive. Looks like the weather should be descent. Friday 9-5, Saturday 9-2 |
