    20 xd

    Looking at bullet boats im kinda leaning toward a 20xd, as it seems to fit my needs and wants. Anyone in arkansas or surronding states goin to sell. Im torn between this and a triton. Any advice as to what i should be looking for beside the obvious?

    I used to drool over Bullets and Tritons. Had rode in a few Tritons and after my first ride in a Bullet, I never looked back. I’m Bullet for life.

    You need to look and ride in each. Look at the actual construction- look under the console, and behind the shifter- places not meant for somebody to see at a boat show. Then you will see what makes a bullet special. Theres a huge difference in quality over quantity

    I've owned both, just like alli says quality is much better, that's only one reason I own a Bullet and won't own anything else, I have a 21RDC if you would like to take a ride in it, just send me a pm or call

    The 20 is going to be a little hard to find, a nice one at least. I turned over rocks everywhere and finally found one 550 miles away after searching 8 months. Lot of 21's few 20's. Once you own a Bullet it is hard to own anything else. I am on #2. Good luck.

    I have talked to the top one, that one is my favorite and in my price range too. Motor has 500 hours on it that really makes me nevous. Yellow is not my favorite but it is sooooo clean and low hours, 1 owner. Really nice! Thanks for posting those

    #3 I noticed the engine block isn’t painted black. Makes me wonder why? #2 don’t like the trailer or wheels another questionable thing why? #1 that motor has the lower rev limit and has the wrong trailer for my likings. If cranks is for sale I would buy his without looking!

    #1- I personally think 500 hrs is a lot. That boat needs a sporty on it to run above pad. Do the electronics come with it?
    #2- 3.5 years of warranty on a newer motor- wonder if they would honor it with a sporty. Love the colors, guessing they put in on a galvanized trailer due to brackish water? That trailer would have to go but the boat has a lot of potential but not for the money they want for it.
    #3- looks clean with a sporty, not a fan of those colors. the XS motors from 03'-to at least 05' were not built on a production line, but by the racing division. The gold block is a means to identify that. They run on high octane and most likely produce more then 250 hp.

    Depending on your needs, keep in mind most boats in the 2000's era could need updated electronics and you can dump some serious cash into that quick.
