Z-6 vs. 750?

[txgolfer45]

Which would you choose and why?  Seems the specs are very close including max hp.  Looks like the Z-6 has a larger casting deck up front.

I just bought the 482 that is the same as the Z-6 .I had ordered the 750 but it was going to take to long to get it so I went with the 482. All of the compartments are lockable on the Z-6 but only the front ones are lockable on the 750. It is 3 inches wider witch means a wider deck.Mine is rated for a 150hp but i think the Z-6 is only rated for a 115hp and the 750 is rated for a 135hp. I believe. The cooled is in the step up to the upper deck of the Z-6 where the 750 it is under the seat. Both excellent boats ,you have to decide for yourself if you want to spend the extra buck for a few extra features.

Also with the Z-6 the fish/depthfinder is in the dash which is a nice feature also the Z-6 has all the guages you need where the 750 only has RPM,speedo and fuel guage as standard.

We just bought a Z6. The one thing that sold me on the boat is they moved the gas tank forward under the seats. Leaving a ton of room in the back making easy access to batteries,bilge pump and aerator which are all under the gas tank in the 750 and the 482.

The gas tank is moved forward in my 482 as well ,super easy access to everything

I also prefer the layout of the 482 as opposed to the 750.  More than enough space for my gear and I like having the trolling batteries mounted towards the front.  My only gripe...and it's VERY minor.....is the trash can on the step up to the forward deck.  It seems like a bit of wasted space to me.  I would have rather seen the cooler extended the full width so you could fit more in there.  Other than that, I love the 482!  I was a little hesitant to go with a motor as small as the 115 opti, but with gas prices where they are I'll settle for 50 mph all day long!
