    How long have you had this boat? If a long time and this is a new problem then what has changed? Do you have lots of weight on the left side that you didn't before? It is normal for boats to kind...

    I respectively disagree! I purchased my 17' aluminum used and I've had it since 2013 and it has given me no problems. I did buy it from a reputable dealer so maybe if a person were buying from an...

    Thanks for your reply. If the tandem is 21'10" I wonder if a single axle trailer would save any length at all. If it did it would have to be that the bow roller stop was closer to the trailer...

    Based upon my experience with a Lowe 17' tin bass boat I would not even think about moving weight up front. Tin boats have a hard time getting the nose up and that is why they run so flat. ...

    Thanks for posting, yikes that ain't good. Doesn't speak well of Triton's workmanship or final inspection. I'm interested in the 18TRX since it appears to be about the only wide body 18' glass boat...

    I am very interested in the 18TRX as my next glass boat, if I'm fortunate enough to have a next glass boat that is. Are any of you storing your 18TRX on a single axle trailer in a garage that is 22'...

    I purchased a used Skeeter from Weida's in 2016 and I was very impressed. I drove 6 hours each way and it was well worth it. They accurately represented the boat, they had the boat clean and ready...

    Funny I had both also up until the end of 2023 but went the other direction. I had a 21' Skeeter 21Fx - 250SHO and a 17' Lowe 17HP - 90 Optimax 2 stroke. I had to sell one in order to buy a big...

    I know this is an old thread but I have a brand new, never used, never even out of the factory shipping box and unfolded Skeeter factory FX21 cover. I traded my FX21 in and gave the buyer a nearly...

    My FX21 250 SHO SM manual jack plate was set on 7 dots and it ran fantastic. This post is spot on however. Equipment and how it is loaded can change things up. My 2 cents would be to go up slowly...

    I really appreciate your post. 20' x 10' minimum at least gives me a reference point. Thanks

    Many pontoon boats actually make a decent fishing platform but I will note that I fish in my bass boat on the lake and down below the dam on the river. I seldom see anyone fishing from a pontoon...

    I have owned both and while I dearly love the smell of 2 stroke oil drifting across the water waiting for a blast off (man that smell used to flip my switch!) I have to say that 4 stroke technology...

    I have 21' length to work with in my garage. Is your 18TRX on a single or tandem axle trailer? I'm trying to figure if I angled the boat in my 21' space how much wider would it take, would it get...

    I understand that using any kind of "post or pole" is a no-no when towing a tube. Tubes just put a lot of stress on the tow point and there are reports of the post being pulled out and flying back...

    Hope you get it figured out. I just traded a 2010 FX21 with a 250 SHO and the original T1 25P prop which was in perfect condition. My boat would hit 74 mph gps at about 5650 rpm so you have way,...

    I don't have that exact model, I've owned a Lowe 17HP since 2013 which is similar. Mine has a 90 hp Merc 2 stroke Opti on it. The porpoising used to drive me crazy. I'd always had glass boat and...
