Nitro Z20: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Nitro Z20 is a tournament-level bass boat engineered to deliver rapid transit to fishing locations while providing amenities typically found on higher-end models. Designed with performance and angler functionality in mind, the Z20 offers a balance of speed, handling, and fishing features that appeal to serious bass anglers.

Power and Performance

The Z20 is available with either a standard Mercury 225 Pro XS four-stroke engine or an upgraded Mercury 250 Pro XS four-stroke, the latter fitted on our test boat with a manually adjustable 12-inch jack plate. Measuring 20 feet 2 inches in length with a 7 foot 10 inch beam and a hull draft of 16 inches, the boat's empty weight is approximately 2,000 pounds. During testing, with two passengers, 30 gallons of fuel, and equipment aboard, the estimated weight was 3,105 pounds. Powered by the 250-horsepower Mercury engine paired with a 14 by 24 inch stainless steel three-blade Fury propeller, the Z20 achieved a top speed of 76.6 miles per hour at 6,200 RPM. Its optimal cruising speed was 26.3 miles per hour at 3,000 RPM, delivering a fuel consumption of 5.3 gallons per hour and an effective range of 223 statute miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from its 50-gallon capacity. Acceleration tests demonstrated rapid planing capabilities, reaching planing in 3.8 seconds, 20 mph in 5.3 seconds, and 30 mph in 7.7 seconds. The boat's mid-range acceleration is robust, providing a firm ride without water washing over the transom during deceleration. Handling characteristics reflect its bass boat design, with the hull climbing onto the pad quickly and maintaining precise line-holding in arcing turns, even over wakes and choppy water. The Nitro Vortex Technology (NVT) hull features six full-length parabolic strakes and a keel pad that enhances stability and smoothness at speed. Construction employs hand-laid fiberglass with reinforced layers in high-stress areas, a 100% composite chemically bonded transom, and a one-piece stringer grid molded integrally with some storage compartments for added space and strength.

Cockpit and Helm Features

The cockpit is equipped with twin Z-Core bucket seats featuring force flex suspension and contoured frames, designed in collaboration with professional angler Kevin Van Dam to provide comfort and support even at high speeds approaching 75 miles per hour. An optional second console is positioned forward of the port seat for anglers who prefer to fish alongside the driver at speed. This console includes a locking glove box with a 16 by 6 inch opening and convenient grab handles. The helm console is outfitted with V3 analog gauges, including a tachometer with integrated trim indicator, speedometer with fuel gauge, and instruments for water pressure and voltage. Standard electronics include a Lowrance Hook 2 5 fish finder, with options for additional devices. Controls are logically arranged with master power and ignition switches to the port of the tilt steering wheel, and a switch panel on the starboard side managing navigation and anchor lights, bilge pumps, and livewell functions. The stereo remote and conventional shift-throttle controls are located outboard on the starboard side. Hydraulic steering is standard, and optional upgrades include a foot throttle and turn signal-style trim switches to facilitate hands-on wheel control at high speeds.

Deck Layout and Fishing Amenities

Access to the forward casting deck is via steps located between the consoles, flanked by cup holders and tool racks. Beneath a hinged step lies a 62-quart cooler equipped with a removable wastebasket and sandwich tray. The bow casting deck spans 42.5 square feet and is covered with an anti-fatigue paddock mat. Bungee cords on each side secure rods during transit. Standard equipment includes a Minn Kota 24-volt trolling motor delivering 70 pounds of thrust with a 42-inch shaft. The bow panel accommodates optional fish finders up to 12 inches and houses switches for navigation lights and outboard trim. Additional features include tool racks, cup holders, and a trolling motor foot pedal. Storage is abundant with three lockable, gas-strut-assisted lockers: a port rod locker capable of holding ten rods up to eight feet long, a lighted center locker with removable dividers and integrated cup holders, and an open starboard locker with clips for paddles and a fire extinguisher. Four-inch pull-up cleats on each side facilitate docking and fender attachment.

Aft Deck and Livewell System

The aft fishing deck measures 82 inches wide by 46 inches fore to aft and includes a 22-inch wide step between the cockpit seats. Under a non-skid hatch is a shallow storage tray, with additional storage for nets above the seats and a removable catch ruler integrated into the deck. A boarding ladder folds neatly into the aft port corner, complemented by a padded grab handle. Four hatches in the aft deck provide access to twin 19-gallon Guardian livewells featuring digital timers, 750-gallon power pumps, a recirculating system, and rounded corners for fish safety. Removable tubs with slots for seven Plano 3700 tackle trays flank the livewells. Behind these, a large hatch grants access to the battery switch, charger, and mechanical components. The electrical system includes dual trolling batteries and a dedicated engine start battery. A hinged panel reveals bilge and livewell pumps, and a removable tray above the batteries offers additional storage.

Trailer and Final Assessment

The Nitro Z20 is delivered on a custom-made trailer featuring a swing-away tongue for ease of transport and storage. Overall, the Z20 presents as a tournament-quality bass boat that combines strong performance with thoughtfully integrated fishing amenities. The incorporation of the new Mercury four-stroke outboard maintains its competitive edge in speed and handling, making it a compelling choice for serious anglers seeking a balance of power, comfort, and functionality.
