| Buying a new or slightly used boat this spring. Thinking about going to glass from my current Aluminum. Doing some research on Skeeter and would love to get some feedback from owners on there overall satisfaction of Skeeter boats. Looking at the MX 1825 vs. WX 1850. PM if you would like?
Thanks! |

| They are very different boats. I've fished out of Keyes 1825 and was pretty impressed for an 18 footer. A friend(Todd Hess) runs the 1850 and loves it. It's a bigger deeper boat with jump seats. More family friendly.
PM me if you'd like Todd Hess contact info. He's spent a lot of time in both boats. |

| I have the mx2025 and absolutely love it! The layout of the mx series is great..the 1825 and the 2025! The rod storage and extended back deck are perfect, no need for a deck extension. The 1825 is a 50mph boat and handles well..you wont be disappointed! |

| Ben, what do you mean by they are different? I am also thinking about an 1825 and am curious about that statement. Is it good or bad? Also it heard mention of a wet ride. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Thanks. |
