[@judyfiumarello3384]

I was in the boat business for over 20 years. Saw the best and the worst of almost every brand out there. Sold 4-5 different brands of boats over the years. Sold new boats that came back in a year, looking like they were 20 years old......and ones that came back every year looking the same way......like they just came out of the factory. Here is the bottom line.......take care of your stuff. Service it, clean it, wax it, cover it, winterize it properly, (not by the hack down the street that does it for $50.00), keep it off the rocks......and if you do, the worst of anything will serve you well. Don't do it, and the best will fail you way before it's time. I own a Nitro with a Merc on the back, (which I said I would never own). It has served me well with no issues............because I take care of my stuff. You do the same, you will be a happy camper no matter which brand you buy.

[@TeamMarineService]

Definitely some words of wisdom right here! So very true!!!

[@judyfiumarello3384]

Thanks guys...........every boat has issues, some more than others. But people think they are cars. Put fuel in them, maybe an oil change once in a while, and when you are done using them............forget about them until 6 mo. down the road and another season is upon them. Turn the key, it does not run right.......THIS BOAT IS A POS.............IT'S ONLY A YEAR OLD. Right! We then get them back..."who winterized this boat". WINTERIZE....what's that? Do you run stabilizer all year? Stabilizer? Did you run no tox through your water systems and wells. HUH? That deer in the headlight look. They pay to get these things fixed, and they blame the boat..................no matter what brand it is. Been there with you guys..and I know there are better and worse brands out there...but a Maseratti will fall to pieces if you decide to go off roading with it. Or it will last a lifetime if you treat it like the piece of machinery it is designed for.......take care of it. Laugh at all your antics, because my husband and I have been in almost every situation you have discribed over 20+ years.

I am on my second Nitro both have been flawless. The 2020 Z20 I have now has been great. I added all my graphs, 5 in total a Minn Kota Ultrex 36v trolling motor a heck of a lot cheaper than BPS prices. The thing I can agree with you on is their trailer are just a notch above junk. Thankfully I have added steel support welds under the steps.

[@billyparker8903]

I've got a 16 year old 929. Never a hull or trailer problem. Looks as good as the day I bought it. The best part,,,, it belongs to me and not the bank!

[@fishingman1857]

i bought a new Z20 Pro new with more on it that you added and I only paid 63000 all in. Love the boat and in two years zero issues and I use it 4-5 times a week during the season. Take care of you equipment and it will take care of you. Fishability is great, price is awesome, and with the cost savings you can afford to fill it with all the tackle you want. In the end you just need to know how to catch fish the boat brand don't matter.

[@TeamMarineService]

That's great to hear!! We just went off of Nitro's website as we do with all of the other brands. Where did you buy yours from? You're spot on with taking care of your equipment too...those are wise words that get unfortunately left by the wayside far too often.

[@fishingman1857]

@@TeamMarineService I ordered it through Vetesnik in Richland Center. On the Nitro pages I follow people seem to have better outcomes from dealers other than BP.

[@CAN43725]

You still get what you pay for. Nitro's quality and re-sale are the lowest in the industry. Pull it with a Dodge truck and the two will match up great!

[@fishingman1857]

@@CAN43725 I am still going to stick up for them based on experience with the brand. I get in the past there have been issues, but if you look at current models they have come a long way. When I pay 20-25 less and I sell it for 20-25 less down the road vs a Ranger am I that much worse off? I didn't have to make payments and interest on that extra money when really the difference comes down to the hull. Everything on else on that boat you can see on every other brand. If I am correct I believe there are also more Nitro hulls sold than any other brand in the industry. The fit and finish on my boat was comparable to others I looked at. Fishability is solid, and its ride and performance is good. I understand I am not going to change many minds here, but fishing out of several other brands I have not been able to justify spending more at this point. Delamination, trailer issues, fading are common in other brands as well that don't sell as many boats and is easy to see if you follow brand pages. I also like the life time warranty on the hull. On another brand I owned I only had a 10 year warranty on the hull and after that I was on my own.

[@fishingman1857]

So I pulled out the paper work on my 2019 Z20. I bought the PRO because it came with a lot of the features I wanted at a better price. Merc 250 Pro XS, Atlas hydraulic jack plate, compartment fans, oxygen generators in the live wells, helix 9 at the bow, built in helix 10 at the console, added on an additional helix 10 ram mounted, passenger console, Minnkota Ultrex, kicker stereo, 12ft Talons, Mercury smart craft gauges, hotfoot, blinker controls, security system - after market, auto and manual bilge pumps, Loc-R-bar - after market, tilt brackets for Talons - after market, boat cover, out the door at 66500 tax, no trade in since I sold my other boat out right, install (by the dealer for the aftermarket and not Nitro). I do have to say I find it ridiculous they are charging you now to install a fish finder when they are building a boat, but I did not have those charges from Nitro. I enjoy watching all your videos, but just wanted to show a real life scenario and I understand you guys were keeping it the same across the board for comparison. Stay safe everyone and tight lines next soft water season!!!

Got a Nitro Z17 last June and I love it, although it’s the first fiberglass boat I’ve ever had. It’s held up and ran great so far hopefully that continues, if not it sounds like the only way to go is up whenever I decide to upgrade.

[@ferguson331]

Dang.. I’m not feeling the love here! Haha! Seriously, my old Z8 has been great. It’s 10 years old and I’ve had it for 7. It was garage kept before I got it and that’s where it’s at right now. Gel coat still looks great, seats and carpet look new, and the trailers good togo. Now...I do take care of all my stuff. It’s always clean cause I don’t let it get hogged up. I’m the guy wiping my boat down with detailer in the parking lot. Having said that, I don’t “baby” shit. I lay the ears back on everything I drive! Im gonna have the boat 10+ years for sure... if it has issues by then... so be it, I got my $’s worth. Poor Boys 2 da Front!

I’ve had more issues with accessories over the years then with my boat. I fish Lake Sam Rayburn and that lake can get pretty rough and my Z9 has never let me down. Kind of hard to see me paying 60k-100k for a new boat when mine is paid for and performs just as good as the newer boats.

Ive watched alot of your boat videos like all the other nerds on here. One thing that everyone needs to always factor in along with price…. Dealer and manufacture support. Im from Flippin. Mtn Home is next door. Lots of good boats have been built here, lots of history. For me if I was buying new or used for that matter, I would go with basscat. Why? Rick Pierce and the plant is 30 min away. Bull Shoals Lake Boat dock is a Basscat dealer and has been for a very long time. I know if I have an issue new or used one or both is going to take care of me! Buying a Nitro is not something I would recommend. I would steer clear of JM Triton’s & Rangers unless you have super super good dealer support. I want to like Vexus I really really do, the boats appear to be awesome. But for me they need time. I was all geared up for a tin rig, but too many horror stories of cracked welds across all brands has scared me off. Plus for the $$ a really good used glass rig seems like a better option.

I have 2020 z20. The way you configured it is way more expensive than it needed to be, you should’ve started with the pro package and then added what you needed. Also removing the air ride seats and livewell coolers would be a more fair price comparison to other boats you’ve priced out. Anyways, haven’t had any major problems with mine yet, other than with the talons but that isn’t nitros fault. Learned the hard way that I should’ve bought power poles when my talons randomly dropped driving down the freeway haha. The steel fenders are really beefy on mine, can’t imagine them falling apart. Will have to keep an eye on the gel coat, the idea that it fades quickly is concerning but I do wax yearly and wipe down with slick mist when I pull it out after fishing.

Which Btw the only way to put the nuts on is to take the top cap off the boat to reach the studs for the ladder which are under the top cap near the transom.

Will say i was looking at different boats all used 19 z 20. 14 legend 199 a 15 zx 225 and a 15 triton wish i would of stepped on a legend v 20 or a skeeter b4 i made a deal but i will say the nitro i had 14 model did preform decent but started falling apart 2 years into it my new to me legend seams solid as of now dont much like the wiring and a few other things but did get a good deal on a very quick boat that rides very good.

I had a 20 year old one that was great. Rode like a truck though.

That hoodie is awesome can i get one Thanks good vid

[@jasonwatkins4277]

That's a whole lotta $$$$$$ for a Tracker!

[@braddalton9283]

I’m stuck between nitro and skeeter price point seems to be exactly the same and trailer quality seems to be exactly the same only difference I can see is the nitro rides better and the skeeter has a Yamaha.

[@TeamMarineService]

We'd steer ya towards the Skeeter for sure Brad

[@chadmcgarvey1864]

Bass Cat!!!

[@TSmith911]

You can go with the Z20 Pro and upgrade for a lot less than the price you got and I have no idea what "installation fees" you're talking about. If you don't like Nitro's just say so but your video is misleading to say the least. I just built one for about $7k less than the price you came up with...an actual boat someone could buy from me and not an imaginary one...

[@TeamMarineService]

Okay we will say it...we do not like Nitro's and yes all they do is make imaginary boats because in reality they are just fiberglass garbage cans with decals on the sides! Hahaha We priced it off of their own website, sure people have gotten them for cheaper prices but maybe Nitro should fix the pricing on their glorious website! We get that there are a lot of Nitro guys that might watch this and end up with hurt feelings but we are just trying to hold these manufacturers accountable not the owners. At the end of the day we are all bass boat guys and the whole point is to have a great time and catch fish....we'd just rather not do it in a Nitro!

My bank has a 2016 nitro z20,,,225 hp,,,only has 1.5 hours on it,,owner died and only used it twice,,it has been sitting dormant for 5 years,,,price is 36k,,,,what are chances of it sitting so long with old fuel might giveme issues,,,,

Hey! I have a nitro z18 and I love it. Also love my evinrude G2 175 😂 But is it the older nitro models that have hull problems or the new one's also? Hard to buy any glasfiber boats from the US since the costoms and tax pay is outrageous! Kind regards from Sweden🇸🇪

I build the intro boats I have not heard of the hull problems your saying the z20 has the older z 6 7 and 8 had hull problems the being taken and care of UNDr warrenty the mercy engine is the only option intro offers for engines the power poles are now a dealer installed option as of the start of 21 prodution

[@sdvten]

If the hull isn't any good then there is no point bolting anything else onto it. If the trailer is junk you can buy a new one but repairing a bad hull adds up quick (even if you can find a good shop to do the work) and inspires no confidence over the long term.

[@evanshillcoxfishing7929]

Hahaha good quality information. I was looking at a like 2005 Nitro 700. Looked like a good boat then I realized it had a 75hp on it from the Factory. Might as well put a tiller handle on it too. No thanks.

[@chadhall5046]

Andy anyone can build a cheap boat aka nitro but only the ones who take pride in their name and craftsmanship build the good boats example ranger (when the wood family owned it ) champion bass cat and ballistic I don't really see any other companies in the glass boat market building anything to those standards

Add Blazer to that list for sure!

[@z19ingreen53]

I have a Gambler, worked at the factory, had brand new Rangers, and skeeters. While my gamblers have been "vintage" so to speak, as for new, Nitro was the only brand of boat I purchased new that wasn't an absolute nightmare from the factory. My 1994 180TF was a great boat as well after I replaced the transom. Only brand of boat I'd ever buy brand new again. Because if you spend an extra 20k on a ranger, you need a f_cking lobotomy lol
