Thinking about getting another Bullet

[happykamper]

So what is the difference in the ride of a XRD vs XRS?? Ride, weight, etc...

From what I have gathered the XRS is the best ride and has the best fishing platform, don't take that to the bank, that is just what I have been told. That is why I ordered one, well actually mine is the 21 SDC ( same boat with double consoles )

To me, you can't beat the ride of a 21RDC

This is correct ! I had a 21xd for 14 years I know the ride it was fantastic but the XRS has a softer ride , I had a bud out this weekend and he had 2 21xds over the years and he said without me asking that the ride is a better ride , we talked about it and feel between the seats improvements and weight shifted forward is the reason .... it does have a heavier boat feel . The XD boat will blow the doors off it easily tho no comparison there.

I had a 21 xd for 9 years before I traded hulls to an xrs in 2017 and my thoughts are fishes better and rides better. I liked the stripes paint scheme better on the 21 xd but it is 4-5 mph slower and I used the same motor on both.

Im with you, but I think me and you might have the only ones without the buckets, I think the seats make a huge difference in comfort? I’ve been in 1 XRS, it rode nice, more like a Bass Cat than a Bullet to me. I wouldn’t trade my RDC for one, that’s just my honest opinion.....

Plus I still can’t get over seeing a Bullet WITHOUT THE STRIPE! I love the classic Stripe

Another question--Would the XRS be lighter, faster, and use less gas than any other brand boat in it's size and usefulness?

I have buckets, ordered my with them, didn't want to sit higher in the boat, by I can see how they would be more comfortable, and yes, an XRS would be FASTER than any other similar boat in it's class

opaleski, I've never owned a Bullet, but my Allison BasSPort Pro/250XS seemed at times to make gas. The range I had with just a 36 gal capacity amazed me. I like the dual console Bullets, those SDC's are really sharp.
