Skeeter SX210 Bay Boats For Sale

The Skeeter SX210 is a bay boat built for inshore fishing, with a 10-inch draft that lets it work flats and skinny water while staying capable enough for light near-shore duty. It measures 21 feet 6 inches in length with a beam of 8 feet 2 inches (about 102 inches), is rated for seven people, and is built in Kilgore, Texas, by Skeeter, which is owned by Yamaha. The boat ships as a complete package from the factory, set up and ready to fish, which makes it a sensible choice for buyers new to the bay boat market. Anyone searching Skeeter bay boats for sale in Texas or Florida will find this 21 bay boat positioned as a near-shore and family-fishing platform.

Power comes from a Yamaha outboard, with the standard package using a 150 and a maximum horsepower rating of 200. The 150 runs roughly 45 miles per hour and returns about 5 miles per gallon at cruise. Upgrading to the Yamaha 200 (the FX) costs around $9,000 and lifts top speed to about 51 mph with a stronger hole shot. The transom uses a torque transfer system built with aluminum stringers, overbuilt to handle a larger motor than the 150. The ride is dry and stable, holding up in 90-degree chop against the wind.

The helm uses an all-new console design carried across the Skeeter bay boat series, with dash space for two 14-inch multifunction displays — unusual on a boat this size — or a single large screen alongside a radio or VHF. It runs SeaStar steering, electric-shift Yamaha smart gauges that report fuel flow, oil pressure, block temperature and water pressure, tilt steering, and a Fusion Bluetooth stereo with four speakers. A drop-down hatch at the console reaches the battery switch, and the boat has room for five batteries (three group 27, a group 27 for electronics, and a group 24 starting battery). The leaning post and handrails are powder coated, and a patent-pending hatch secures the leaning-post cushion when it slides forward.

Storage and rod capacity define the layout. The bow has four main hatches: a large center compartment for PFDs and safety gear, a starboard fish box that drains overboard rather than into the bilge, a port locker that holds five rigged spinning or fly rods, and an anchor locker sized for two Danforth anchors with a notched lid for a flush deck. Compartments are roto-molded and lockable. The boat carries 14 rod holders total — four on each side of the console and six on the back of the leaning post. A recessed casting platform forward improves balance underfoot.

Livewell capacity includes a 30-gallon well, a 17-gallon forward well, and a smaller console bait well with a double-edge seal and timer-controlled pumps that recirculate to keep bait fresh during trailering. The stern carries a standard Engel 80-quart cooler with compression latches, flush-mount cleats, two trolling rod holders, flip-up jump seats over storage, and a wet locker often used for a cast net. The matching Skeeter trailer is welded specifically for the SX210, runs tandem axles with oil-bath hubs and a breakaway tongue, and brings overall length on the trailer to 25 feet 8 inches.

When weighing a used Skeeter bay boat, note a few details on the factory build: a 12-volt receptacle is not included as standard and can be added at the dealer, and the trailer does not come with retractable tie-downs. Common factory options include an Atlas hydraulic jack plate, boarding steps (around $500), a swim platform (around $600), a console rail (around $600), and the upgraded Fusion stereo (around $800). Skeeter bay boat dealers can also install the buyer's preferred Garmin, Simrad, Lowrance or Humminbird electronics in the open dash.
