I came out of a Bullet 21XDC, so it's what I'm basing everything on. The Allison rides great, seems to be more hull noise at speed, like water slapping the hull, wind protection is awesome, and no backwash when the hull sits down, boat is very quick and responsive, and has great storage. Loving the way it fishes. I still have a lot to get use to with it, ran it up to 86 today, Overall I'm impressed.
