I just bought a 2006 Skeeter ZX190 with an Evinrude E-Tech 150.
What have you guys added to your Skeeter after you took ownership of it to make it more comfortable to fish out of?

5 bass in the livewell is a nice addition to make tournament days more comfortable.

Neil Eckberg- Cary, NC - 2008 Skeeter ZX250- 250 Yamaha SHO
Kerr Lake Ba$$hole
A recessed foot peddle tray, hot foot, up graded electronics, and a V-T2 for the live well lids.
Still working on that 5 fish in the live well thing![]()
Padded entire front and rear decks.
Power-Pole
Re-Power to SHO
Hardwired the TM with a heavy duty battery on-off swith.
Got rid of that vinyl plastic bezel in the bow and replaced with aluminum. Mounted my graph and aftermarket switches to it, and in it.
Secured a measuring board to the rod locker lid. (it's always right there ready to use when needed).
Blinker trim (it didn't come with one and I like it)
Re-worked my bilge floor so it'd "hold a screw" (keeps batteries and stuff secure).
Shallow alumium battery trays.
Made small divider compatments for the front tackle compartment to separate soft plastics, and stuff.
Paddle holder under my running light holders in the not rod locker.
Torsion axles under the trailer (it had leaf springs).
Spare tire mount is an extra hub with bearings.
Re-wired/re-routed wiring and cables and added several of those things that supress interferance.
Little custom abs plastic deal for the trolling motor bounce stop to rest on.
Had stainless rails on the top cap, got rid of those...didn't like em.
Power pole is in the way of an E-ladder. So, I'm now re-fabricating an e-ladder for starboard side mounting.
I think the new secret color is "A-Rig"..........
