Anyone here that has owned both a ZX200 and ZX225? Is 5 inches less deck space the only difference and electronics upgrade?

pretty sure the zx 200 is 19 ft 5 in the zx 225 is 20ft 2 in much better ride on the 225
It’s 6”. The ZX225 is 19 ft 11 in. Same beam but 50lbs heavier. I guess could make the ride better. I would also guess the front deck isn’t that much bigger on the ZX225. Unless you really need the extra 6 inches and 25 HP not sure the extra $7000 is worth it.

I would also consider waiting to see the spec's on what is being announced in March by Skeeter.
I've been in both and really can't tell much of a difference. I wanted the 25 more HP but the layout was my deciding factor. As stated already I would defiantly wait to see what Skeeter unveils at the classic.

I've been in ZX200's since 2002. Just bought a 2020. I like the 19'-5 boats. My partner has always had ZX225's. When they were 20'-2 long, the difference was noticeable. More room. Little better ride.
At 19'-11, I'd save the money and buy some high dollar electronics.
That ZX200 is a fine ride!!
