The PERFECT Bass BOAT: NITRO Z Series

The search for the perfect bass boat continues with the Nitro Z 20. I met with a friend and had him show us his custom painted Nitro, the fishing features, and do a walk thru to see if this might be the boat we're looking for.

This boat has some good features. People can crack on nitro all they want, but remember who we're talking about here. Mikey can float a bath tub out into the lake and catch BIGZ! Can't wait to see what you choose, Mikey.

[@thegiant573]

So what I have found out about bass boats is that all of them are super nice and way out of my price range.

[@douglasschmidt6873]

I never thought I would get one it took 40 years don’t feel bad my friend

[@alexkoutdoor]

Yup. Picked up an aluminum myself. Does me fine. Inexpensive and fuel efficient. Still catch good fish. Maybe one day I will upgrade to a larger aluminum or a fiberglass. Time will tell

[@thegiant573]

@@douglasschmidt6873 I have kids in private school so the kayak will do for now.

[@Dbars19]

dude these are things you just dont decide to buy one day. It took me 8 years of hard work and saving for my Ranger. Plan now.

[@ericswearingenmusic9967]

And 80 percent of the people who buy this stuff I’d say are compensating. You got kayak fishers who would just destroy someone with 50k worth of gear because they have focused on knowledge and practicing skills instead of spending money for bells, whistles, and aesthetics. If these boats are something you like, and you can afford one..then that’s awesome.. get one. But they do not catch fish, and are absolutely not necessary to having fun and getting big bass

[@michaelwalsh2095]

There are pros and cons to every boat. People will say that more people have problems with Nitros but this honestly is not true. Nitro builds and sells more boat than any other boat. So naturally you will have more complaints because there are more out there. But the numbers show the percentages are no different than any other manufacturer. The Nitro line are definitely cheaper than any other. However, it does allow you to spend more on accessories to pimp out the boat the way you want it. So would you rather have the best made boat on the market and no cash left, or spend less on the hull and more on cool stuff? When all is said and done, whatever brand you buy you're just buying their hull. The motor, electronics, trolling motors, power poles and everything else is the same on every boat!!! Love my Nitro and if I decide to buy a new boat one day, it'll definitely be a Nitro!!!

[@Michaelpruis]

While I agree it is totally blown out of proportion with the nitro hate, it is definitely a lower price boat... there are a number of cost cutting materials and design elements.

[@DustinLaughs]

2020 Z20 Pro owner here - I have been very pleased. The price point is great, and the boat flat out performs. Is it perfect? No. Neither are Skeeters, Phoenix, Caymus, or any other brand. I bought my boat to fish and fish ability is as good as any out there. Just my two cents.

[@rickvann3489]

I'll was the first to tell you Mike this is the boat. I could buy any boat and I ended up with a 2021 Nitro Z-19 Pro and this boat is the real deal. Bought mine from Bowers Marine in PA. Fully fully load with a 200 v8 fully loaded I said 67 and it planes in 2.2 seconds watch boat test on this boat fuel mileage is unreal boat rides great and stood the test of the St.Lawrence and Ontario big water and waves. No cracks no nothing I fish hard and if it was crap I would have sent it down the river. $49,749 with custom cover jack plate live well pump outs etc. No power poles is only thing I don't have. I have a buddy just bought in October a 2022 Skeeter FXR Limited 20 foot and $83,000 He and I both agree that his boat is not $23,000 better then mine. I have top of the line Minkota i-pilot ilink etc.

[@CaptYale68]

Great job again!

[@rodneyhanbaum697]

Absolutely great content, excellent boat a a decent price point

[@MJ_Bass]

I’m going on my third year on my z20 pro package and have been pretty happy with it. Had to tighten some hardware here and there on the boat and the trailer, but that’s normal with use. Really the only thing that has been bad was the factory agm interstate batteries. Had two bad ones from the factory and replaced with lithiums. Also the carpet is a bit cheaper than a ranger or basscat, it will probably need to be replaced sooner (mine still looks good for now). The cost of the nitro has gone up significantly, even since mine which I bought in 2019. I believe the skeeter zxr is now cheaper or slightly more than the z20 pro and the zxr has power poles standard. If I was buying new now I’d look hard at the zxr. Also the zxr has rocker switches, which is an upgrade in my opinion over digital switches.

[@alexkoutdoor]

Dude, honestly. After watching these boat reviews thus far. I honestly really like the Nitro. Great layout and love the accessibility in the back compartments of the boat.

[@kolbybakerfishing6255]

Exactly, everyone hates on nitro but I really really like the new ones and I’ll be getting one here soon

Perfect coffee break content, Can't wait to see what you choose man, these boat video are awesome, you really learn all the little things that for me I wouldn't think of while buying it, I'd think of it 2 seconds after I pulled off the lot with the boat, Good content Mikey I'm pretty sure Rick clunn fishes the z20 nitro just saying nice boat

[@mikeybalzz]

yeah man i'm finding it very insightful to talk with these guys that own them and have them answer my questions and walk me thru their boats. it's a lot like a fishing rod or reel, everybody is looking for something that's a perfect fit for their style and these bass boat vids really highligh t that. truth be told though, i want every one of them 😂

I have a buddy, Gary S., who is a MLF Marshall. I asked him what he felt were the best riding boats out there and he said the best was the Phoenix 921 Elite and next was the Nitro Z21. He has been in them all.

[@MrThumper1440]

[@douglasschmidt6873]

I have a 2021 z19 pro and I love it for a carpenter from Florida it fit my budget and got me on the water rippin lips also the power switch in the back can be switched to where if you’re cranking battery dies it will pull power from your trolling motor batteries to crank your motor you guys didn’t look but it’s there 😎

[@MJ_Bass]

I think on the brand new ones they got rid of the jump switch. Saving the money from buying extra wiring.

[@madison.outdoors6559]

500 bucks seems like a fair price point for a custom paint job. That paint job is 🔥 and may be something to look for in the next few years. I only recently purchased an 05 skeeter zx195 earlier in January at a good price and this year will tell me and the wife how much we'll get opportunities to be on the water. Love these kind of vids btw

[@jamesmilloy2411]

Hey mikeybalzz Ive been watching all your videos and was wondering which boat youre leaning towards? A video with a top 3 would be fire

[@jamesc.murray5932]

NAILED IT!!!!!!!!! First, I was skeptical of this video given the title of this video, given my own recent personal shopping experience, trying to find boats such as these. But there is no doubt that these new Nitro Z Series boats fit a gap in the marketplace that I have been trying to find for a while now, in new condition, without having to dip too low into a more ratty used vessel, that would be more in my price range. I am SO glad I watched this video, for now I know these types of bass boats exist. Coupled with the fact that KVD endorses these boats (A fact I learned by using your Nitro link found within the description of this video.), I AM SOLD!!!!!!!!!!! Alan is a way cool Dude. Understated, yet capable. I think I am kind of like that, too.: I'll spend money to get to the quality item I am looking for, but I'm not flashy or stupid about my purchases, and I want value, without overspending. This Nitro is a true reflection of its owner. I AM STOKED!!!!!!!!!!

[@zackeryedward6782]

I still have my 03 Nitro NX 750. Love my little boat. Nitro actually has a worse reputation than their product deserves. My boat has been beat up and put to the test both by myself and the former owner. Gel coat still looks phenominal, transom and stingers still rock solid too. Never been worried about failure other than stuff I cant control like a spark plug coil going out or something random. With that said they really aren't that much cheaper today like they were 10-15 years ago. And other company do edge out Nitro once they start getting into the 40k price point.

[@randywalden5340]

If your sponsored with a nitro and get a new one every year then they are a great boat. The console on a Skeeter is thicker than the transom on a nitro. The brand new ones rattle like crazy. If you ride in a higher end boat then ride in these you can tell a huge difference. Resale on nitro also sucks and now that they are priced real close to the higher end boats absolutely no advantage in buying one new.

[@jhondoe6664]

Agree...I have a 2020 FXR 20 with 250 SHO...I love the boat...the SHO is a BMF.....

[@jamham1988]

I have a z21. It's my first boat. It has been absolutely great so far. My one gripe is that the compartments do not keep out moisture. I learned that the hard way. I keep extra clothes in one of the back compartments. A few weeks later, they had mold on them. Toilet paper in the glove compartment was soggy as well. Other than that, it's a great boat. But when I'm ready to trade up, I think I will go with a skeeter.

[@mikeybalzz]

i never thought of that, one of the downsides of the bins coming out means they're not totally sealed up. definitely something to keep in mind.

[@DavidMccallister65]

Dude that's one of my must haves. That's totally unacceptable for a new bass boat today. That's one of the reasons I went with Caymas. I've got large raised flanges with good gaskets and I've driven for hours in a thunderstorm and not a drop in any compartment. I've also had rollers wash the rods off my deck and fill up the cockpit ankle deep and still never had a drop of water in any compartment

[@MrThumper1440]

Now you don’t have to buy wet wipes

[@dahlenleonard8232]

Nitro boats are pretty good think the seats sit up a little bit higher than I’d prefer, the trailers are the biggest problem, they are tube framed witch rusts easily especially in brackish water and the axles are basically fence post with spindles welded on the ends, if they came with torflex axles and a channel iron frame I would probably consider buying one

[@matthewheld8577]

You and I are on the same mission. I’m looking for my next boat. Today, I visited 3 dealers in TN. I’m totally in learning mode. I’m fishing out of a 98 hydra sport 270 z that’s in mint condition. So I totally am green to what it’s like what’s available in a new bass boat. I fish mostly alone and not many big bodies of water. First dealer I stopped was a phoenix dealer. After I stepped on the deck of a 21’, I quickly realized this is way more than I needed in size. I the stepped into a 819 pro and I felt at home. Not too big, lots of storage,…but I didn’t pull the trigger. Like I said; I’m green. But seemed right rigged the way I wanted for 60k Onto next dealer. All they had was skeeters; they must love them, because they were more than my first house in 1994; and minimally rigged. Then I went to dealer #3. They carry the Caymas and vexus boats; and also suzuki outboards; which are now rigging options for vexus and soon maybe for Caymas. Several thousands cheaper than YamaS and mercs, and by some mechanics better. But digress, I was interested in looking at the 20’ and 19’ Caymas. Each had their pros and cons. I liked the size of the 19 only because it’s closer to a 20 among many other simple options like switch styles, latches, etc. and price. But here was the kicker…the vexus AVX2080/1980. Salesman (Joseph) has personally owned two 2080 models, coming out of skeeters and said it’s the best riding boats he’s been in next a Caymas and he wouldn’t be in a Caymas now,’if Caymas hadn’t Sponsored him a deal. He said, best boat on the market 20-25k cheaper than a glass boat and you would be Hard pressed to feel the ride difference. He said depending on load and people with a 200 mid 69’s to low 70’s I was impressed with the storage, layout and ease of movement around the boat. It’s now in my list….maybe you should look at with your budget mindfulness

The 2019 actuator ended up being replaced with a 2020 system. One day after the one-year warranty expired on the trailer. I was heading to a tournament in the middle of nowhere and a leaf spring breaks. Thank God for Thayers Marine in Norwich Connecticut because they fought for me and White Water Marine ended up supplying heavy duty leaf springs. Why weren’t these leaf springs installed initially? A whole season was lost because of these issues. However the 4-stroke Merc is awesome. The boat used to get up to 71 mph with a 23 pitch fury prop. Since installing lithium’s the boat has trouble hitting 65 now. Moved the heaviest tackle to the rear. Nothings changed:/

[@MJ_Bass]

If you watch some of his segments when he is “shopping” for used boats he recommends nitros. Not saying they are the best boats, but they aren’t like the junk they first came out with.

[@bassinwithbuck4955]

@@MJ_Bass I've been in a ton of Nitros over the years as they are the prominent brand that you see around the Ozarks. The newer models sound very hollow as compared to other brands. Gelcoat isn't up to par and tends to show stress cracking around the transom and corners of the compartment lids. Granted these aren't "structural" cracks it's still an issue. Another problem I've seen two people have problems with is a condition known as "hooked hull." The boat wouldn't plane out and jump up on pad. The hull itself was warped which was caused from sitting on the trailer. The boats were warrantied by Nitro, however both of those guys were without their boats for several months. Second is the quality of the trailer. After 1 year I've seen one show major paint peeling issues due to rust. It's a box frame design as opposed to C channel which causes water to pool in the interior of the trailer causing rust and rot. Granted I haven't seen any major transom issues first hand, however I've heard of top cap separation from several owners at the transom when they were running a larger jack plate. Finally the seats sit very high in the boat which leads to a feeling of instability at high speeds. To see what I'm talking about you'd have to sit in one. This is just my .02 from a fair amount of experience in one of them. Granted all brands have their issues, however I'd lean toward going with a smaller less "mass produced" brand such as Phoenix or Charger. This is coming from a guy who owns a pre-White River Marine 2018 Ranger. I'm not married to any brand as long as they bring quality to the table.

[@MJ_Bass]

@@bassinwithbuck4955 I own a 2020 z20, so I’m likely a little biased. But it seems like the hooked hulls have been solved for a while, you just don’t see that problem noted in the forums from basically the z8/z9 era onward. Also haven’t heard of widespread stress crack issues, not any worse the other brands anyways. I will agree that the trailers aren’t great, honestly though basscat and ranger are really the only brands (off the top of my head) with really nice trailers.

[@ShaneJMcNair]

Basscat, 🍎 & 🍊 he's saving the best for last. There are used Basscats worth more than most other boat brands new. Basscat is more than a name... I'm not saying other boats are bad. There are great new boats to select from, then there are Basscats... 🍺🎣

I’m going to call BS on the seats! I have a friend that has a Z21 2020 and twice we hit wakes and my spine about shattered!! The boat fishes great but the seats suck ass

[@dawnparker2014]

Looks like dido landing

[@Crankinstien]

No Skeeter? Huge mistake.

[@notsogood6249]

They all have pro's and con's. When it comes down to it...they are made about the same. They are all within the same price range. I say... buy what you want because your the one paying for it.

[@ConceptNull]

"metal flake" you mean glitter?? You know boats are pointed with regular glitter?

[@bobbarnhill8557]

cheap hardware, Cheap carpet, even cheaper trailers. chopper gun hull and top cap. They are really over priced for what they are. Bottom line is most folks don’t care. The boat looks good and gets the job done and may cost less money new. It’s the most popular boat on the water.

[@brendonbradford407]

Look at a falcon

[@stevenjanuchowski5578]

The boats are just ok but trailer is garbage, very thin metal, had to weld mine a couple of times because fenders crack from road vibration

I used to sell Nitros for a Tracker store in Midland, TX. The fit and finish on a Nitro has to be the worst in the industry. Resale is awful. The hulls are paper thin. They also have awful stress fracturing in the gel coat as a result of the thin fiberglass. They’re a decent ride, but I would never buy one because they won’t last and no one wants to buy them second hand.

[@stevoky]

I drives me nuts when people call nitro an economy boat. People on a budget can't afford a 50k boat let alone 70+

[@nicocua3118]

Jesus Christ loves you so much!!!!

[@rickyreynolds9056]

Dude not a Nitro bro! 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@mittiejackson8421]

It isn't a big water boat.😂😂

[@jeremyjohnston2583]

Its not an economy boat, its a not rip u off boat! Lol your paying for a name with all those other boats with same ole issues except they ate 20,000 more

[@mittiejackson8421]

You catch more fish and have money in your pocket and the bank with aluminum.

[@kevinjaquith7879]

If your used to a triton. Nitro build quality is junk. They are cookie cutter boats. The attention to detail is not there.

[@nicocua3118]

Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life!!!!
