Nautic star hands down. yamaha is way easyer to get service. #1 four stroke in sales and service. The nautic star is a great ride, dry in the rough stuff. what other add on do they have.

+1 with Allen. I don't really know much about either one of those boats. However the proverbial nail was hit on the head in regards to the motors.

I just re-powered my 22' Bluewave Striper with a new Yamaha 150HP 4 stroke. And I'm extremely happy with the Yamaha!! The Nautic Star 2100 Bay specs are very similiar to my Bluewave. I would go with the Nautic Star 2100 Bay.

I own a Nautic Star 2200 TE and I love it. They are right it is dry in rough water.

The 200HP Honda is a 4-stroke? Both motors are reliable and proven! Observe the guides. I have no problem servicing my Honda at all in area.
Baystealth, BlueWave, Kenner, etc. they come in plain jane model and fully loaded. So its hard to say with the info given. But sounds like both choices are good to me.
I love the new NauticStar!! Not sure about the 2005.

I talked to three different guys this past weekend on Twak and we all made a point to go over to each other and say "love your NauticStar, I love mine too" unsolicited. I asked for advice a year ago before I bought mine here, glad I did

I was in the maroon agrarian bass boat, with the bonehead in a green bass boat trolling around me.
