1998 33zx ?
Does anyone know this boat or have an opinion on it? I have a friend that’s looking to get out of his 1988 33’ Fountain and into something with more room and amenities for weekends/overnights. Thanks John.

I can tell you all u want to know. I love my 33 zx. 5'6" head room rely deep hull with hi side walls in the cockpit and handles rely good in the ruff I have the 500 efi hps in mine and I run in the upper 70s all day long. u can make the couch and table turn into another bed and sleep 4 adults in the cabin no problem we have done it. its the best u r going to get with space and comfort with out buying a cruiser at that size. here is a video on how it rides in 3 to 4's with some fives doing around 65-70 mph

I went and looked at that boat. I was very disappointed when I got there. It looked much better in the pictures. Speaker grills are all yellowed. Gauge faces are faded badly. Some large gouges/dock rash. Did not look well maintained. There was oil dripping out of the bilge. Someone shat in the toilet and left it there. I don't know...maybe I was expecting a pristine boat and was sour after seeing it. Do you know what motor work it needs? They have had it there for awhile. I looked at it in March, they didnt mention any motor problems...must have had issues this summer on a test ride? A lot of boat for the money though.
