Many top pros rely on the NITRO® Z20 XL to be their best on the water. The performance, layout, features, and quality all set the Z20 XL apart and deliver the winning ingredients in one tournament-ready package.

A 250HP rating is the beginning of the Z20 XL’s performance, with top-end speed punctuated by chop-busting strength, and superior handling—even at speed. The front deck features anti-fatigue padding, an enormous center rod locker that keeps your sticks safe and handy, and twin storages with moisture-busting seals that keep your gear safe from the elements.

The console features a Lowrance® Eagle fishfinder to get you right in the game, while Z-CORE™ seating keeps things smooth and comfortable in chop and during long days. Rounding out this derby-ready package is a custom trailer that’s designed for maximum stability and safety for years of on-road adventure. Nowhere will you find more pro-level prowess and capability than the Z20 XL.
