    Took a tour of the Skeeter Factory

    We are down here in Texas on vacation and we took a tour of the Skeeter factory a couple of days ago. What an awesome operation. Got to see the new ZX20 and I think a ZX21. First class operation

    Did you check out the old original wooden Skeeter in the Lobby?

    Thats odd cause I took about 150 last time I was there and they were encouraging me to as well as pointing out special features to get pictures of. The link is here on this page still I think.

    Maybe they were building a new stealth boat and didn't want anyone to steal the technology

    They did have a cool new walleye boat the were making. The finished one I saw, I think they said it was the 4th one they built.
