I like the fact that i can have a 250HP on a 20' boat so I choose the 20i. It is perfect if you fish around docks and tight to cover but is also great on big water. I can go anywhere a 21i can go in rough water but I still have a little more performance and its a bit more responsive to drive. personally I think the 20i is about the best overall boat I have owned with a ZX225 right behind it with a Ranger Z520 pretty close but in third. You can just tell that Skeeter and Ranger were built by fishermen by their layouts.
