Skeeter FX21 Bass Boats For Sale

The Skeeter FX21 bass boat is a full-size, tournament-oriented rig that Skeeter builds in partnership with Yamaha, which owns the brand. Most boats from the 2018 and 2019 model years carry a Yamaha 250 four-stroke, including the SHO, and the FX21 is set up to fish two anglers with a full tournament load. Because Skeeter and Yamaha engineer the package together, the transom supports are built completely inside the hull and the boat is matched to the engine, so the rigging works as one unit. It suits both newer tournament anglers and seasoned competitors who want a large deck and a deep tackle setup.

Performance is the headline reason owners buy it. With the Yamaha 250 turning a foot throttle, the FX21 runs 65 to 70 mph with two anglers, a full tournament load and a full tank of gas. The four-stroke is naturally aspirated, which helps it return strong fuel economy for all-day fishing, and it delivers power quietly and cleanly through the band. The hull handles big water well, though it can porpoise; keeping the motor trimmed all the way down on hole-shot and plane settles it. Many boats are fitted with an Atlas jack plate, SeaStar steering and trim tabs for fine-tuning the ride.

The helm uses soft-touch buttons and a push-button control panel, with trim controls reachable from both the left and right hand alongside the foot and hand throttles. A factory cooler between the dual console seats doubles as a third seat with a soft cushion, and the dual console keeps rod tips protected and adds enclosed glove storage. Electronics owners run include a Lowrance 12-inch in the dash, while the 2019 Apex edition steps up to Humminbird Solix 12 and Solix 15 graphs. The bow carries a Minn Kota Ultrex 36-volt trolling motor with a 45-inch shaft and recessed, flat foot controls; later boats integrate the Ultrex with Humminbird through built-in link.

Storage and the deck layout are a strong point. The bow holds a large center tackle compartment that takes roughly 12 Plano boxes, with removable fins to mix 3600- and 3400-style trays plus gallon bags of plastics, a built-in net holder and a dedicated day box with a slam latch and grooves for hanging baits to dry. The rod locker swallows 12-plus rods and accepts 7-foot-9 and 7-foot-11 sticks with room to spare. Compartments are smooth with no carpet, which keeps mold and algae out, and every box is lit with bright LEDs. Front and aft deck plates are aluminum mounted on posts rather than fiberglass, riding on spring-loaded aluminum hinges that lock down, and a combination lock can secure all panels at once and set an alarm.

In the back, the FX21 has two live wells, one on each side, with built-in oxygenators, fill pumps port and starboard, recirculating pumps on both sides, and a pump-out that shares the port recirculating pump for filling a weigh-in bag. Battery and charger access is on a split deck so you can lift one side at a time. The cranking battery is typically an AGM, and the 36-volt trolling motor bank can be run on AGM or lithium such as Battle Born. Power-Poles are common, and a light mounted on top serves as an anchor light at blast-off.

When shopping a used FX21, look closely at live-well pump access, since the recirculating pumps sit well up under the live wells and the port well drains debris straight to its pump, and check battery-tray access because the lid is centered and the starting battery may need removal to service trolling motor batteries. The 2019 Apex edition is a limited-production trim with color-anodized aluminum pieces, Wraith blue automotive-style paint meant to match the Yamaha cowling, red seat inserts and Solix 15 electronics.
