Well I am the owner of a new to me 2006 Skeeter 20i with a Yamaha 250 HDPI. Took it out today for the second time had it up to 5800 rpm 73.9mph per my gps and she still has a little more in her. Man I cannot say enough how nice it is to have a top of the line boat. It has far exceeded all of my expectations. Here are some pics

Thanks guys. I have to say I wasnt a fan of the dual console, but after a few hours on the water I am really starting to like it. My dad has stopped complaining cause the wind is not beating him senseless and he has no clue how fast we are going .

Very nice, congrads! I was basically born on a boat and growing up we had 1 Skeeter and 3 Ranger boats, 2 bayboats and then offshore. All flew down the lake at 70+mph! Take the prop and get it labbed by a prop shop and I'll bet you'll hit 75+, install a "hot foot" and trim steering controls and it'll feel like a race car! Keep it stored inside and it will stay like new! Call me if you're in TX and want to fish!
woops, I see it already has a hot foot, nice!

Yeah its got a hot foot for the vertically challenged. At 6'-3" I am going to have to move her back a bit. The boat is set up perfect otherwise, well I would like to take the Humminbird out of the console and put it on the bow and install the 1197 and have it interlinked but I dont have the cash. The good thing is even though the graph in the console is small it is still color and has the side/down scan sonar.
