Yeah I saw a 2010 skeeter ZX 22 Bay online it was in Florida. It was a demo used for a tournament. It had the SHO 250 Hrdayulic jack plate, trim tabs. The wanted 43K for it. Really nice looking rig. It looks like the sides are pretty low in that boat, didn't know how good it would take the rough water.

It does fine in rough water,unless you a running with a crosswind then you will get wet no matter what boat. Head on or quartering the waves is no problem. We had it in some 3-4 footers in toledo bend this spring running 40mph no problem. Gets even smoother at 50mph,but gets a lil air. My dad has a non hpdi vmax 225 and it runs 65mph with a light fuel load. It also floats in 10-11" of water.

you'll like the haynie but it is a rolled edge boat and dosent have the nice finish like the cap boats and the cap boats have more storage.

Rolled gunnels are much easier to clean though.

Take a look at the the 2170 rolled edge blazer bay r the 2200 with the liner blazer bay. Same hull. Just 21 is rolled edge and 22 has insert. Both r very nice. I'm getting the 2170

agree.....I wouldn't call my boat underpowered but I do beleive it could use the 200 and would be more efficient.

Talked with over 4 dealerships before I bought mine and all 4 talked me out of the 200 Oh well.

But I'll give you a strong recommendation for the Frontier. Great boats....little cheaper than its big brother Blackjack.

Haynie great boat too! I really like the Blazer Bays also.
