If you don't have stress cracks, you ain't fishing. Stress cracks are like wrinkles in your face. I have them both and still fishing.

Gotta defend Bullet a bit here. I can't speak on the 20ftrs as mine was the 21XD but they are one of the best rough water boats I have been it. The hull design helps a ton and its a myth that you get tossed around in rough water because of the light weight. Simply not true.They are also not tippy as some think. I am a big guy and mine was pretty stable. It was the storage I hated.

Get rid of those minner buckets and jug lines and you would have plenty of room.

Once again those that have not been in a 21 foot Bullet speaks the loudest. Any day you skeeter boys want to run rough water bring it. I can tell you my boat is plenty stable for my 300 lb fat arse.
Its a fluke any time you want to ride in a Bullet so ya know what you are talking about look me up. Just be warned that rough water and going fast is not for everyone.

when you're landing on water, water is not going to give much right? well would you want to be sitting on top of 1300 lbs hitting water or 2000 c'mon really? i've had a legend le 21 and a few gamblers and 1 champion i can tell you for a fact none of the boats ride like a bullet. but until you ride in one you won't know.

If you had a Champion you wouldn't have to worry about cracks, roids, or getting wet... True enough, but you would have to worry about getting sloshed out of it when your partner on the back deck moves about.... TFP

I know a couple of die hard fisherman that got on the bullet train for a short time...both were 21s with Pro XS...both said they were fun to drive and outrun their buddies in but they both hated the ride and said they fished like chit. One had his 6 months the other right at 8 months. One went back to Ranger! Haha
Amistad cooled their heels on the bullet fun! LOL

I had a Bullet for 9 years after owning Rangers, Skeeters, Hydrasport, and Champion. Best riding, best performing, best built boat I ever owned. I bought an Allison after the Bullet, but the Bullet is still the second best boat I ever owned.
