2021 Nitro ZV21
Our largest fiberglass Deep V is built extra tough to help you compete in extra tough Great Lakes conditions. It features a 5” touchscreen with one-touch command of boat controls—including the innovative First Fish function, which fills and recirculates the livewell. A handy key fob controls many of the same functions.
The aggressive Deep V hull, gelcoated stringer system and deck are chemically bonded to form a one-piece structure that can take a beating. And for the sprint back to the weigh-in, you’ll be powered by up to 400 horses. So, when it comes to tough conditions, choose the ZV21. It has the muscle to make you a champion.
