From the factory, the Z21 XL Pro features twin 12” Garmin® ECHOMAP Ultra units at the bow and dash, a Minn Kota® Ultrex™ trolling motor, and up to 300 horses of Mercury® FourStroke power to get you there ahead of the pack. Complementing this class-leading combo of features is the NITRO® Z-TOUCH™ touchscreen that gives you realtime control of and insight into critical boat functions like livewells, bilge pumps, and storage box air circulating fans that protect your gear from rust and mildew. On the trolling motor, the Z21 XL Pro boasts unbeatable stability in foul weather and with multiple anglers, and inside the deck storage boxes are huge spaces that are tailorable to your wants in tackle and rod storage. Dual day boxes up front keep your go-to baits immediately at hand, and every box features an extra tall raised lip with gasket to keep the elements at bay.
