    The deal? Well, it’s a Jumpman logo on my boat. I’ve had them on my last 4 boats for years. I’m a huge Jordan fan and I like the logo on the boat.

I liked having that extra space there for extra life vests, etc.

    One other update they did, which is excellent is the center seat and ease of removal, but also a built in, glassed in box. I have a extensive video of the layout and changes and everything on the Nitro Bass Boat Owners facebook page.
    Is the center storage the same exact dimensions as the Z19? Or is it just a similar layout, but more space? How many 3700 sized boxes can they fit?

    Also, have you heard about any performance reports from the new Z20's with the new 225 4-Strokes?

    On a side note, you probably have the nicest Nitro I've seen!!

    Direct injection isn't all great news, especially in a four stroke, 1- di requires high pressure, high pressure creates a need for a expensive or complex pump, 2- on four strokes direct injection prevents any fuel treatment to keep the intake valve clean ( a problem with emissions and pcv dumping unburnt blowby into the intake that clings and carbons up the valve witch then let's air go backwards slightly on the compression stroke, 3 multi port fuel injection is cheep simple and reliable

    The only reason 2-strokes ever ran direct injection was to meet EPA standards.

    Never figured how much gas I go through, I would probably cry. Went through $150 this weekend and had to add 2 more gallons of oil. Long runs on the Tn river are normal around here unfortunately.

    Very little. Also, the porpoising issue from the earlier hull design seems to have been worked out as well. I don’t experience it at the mid range like some have in the 2018 and earlier 20s. This new hull is legit.
