    FX21 250 SHO

    Hey everyone,

    Possibly looking to get into a 2013 FX21 250 SHO setup. What speeds are you guys seeing with these setups with a full tourney load. Thanks in advance!

    Im at 70 with mine but I carry too much weight in tackle and my gut! I weigh 300 pds my partner 250, two full tanks, I am happy with the prformance knowing again how it's got enough in it to open a tackle warehouse. Thats with a 25 pitch FXP 2.5" below the pad 5,980 RPM's

    Thanks for the reply! Other than the extra length of 1', is there a considerable difference in perfomance between a FX20 - FX21?

    There is only 8" difference and the 20 seems just a little sportier in my opinion.

    Thanks for the replies gentlemen. Still uncertain if I'm gonna go with FX20 or 21. I am planning on fishing the Bassmaster Opens next year and looking for something that will be able to handle the bigger bodies of water.

    Why not look at a Legend V20? The ride is amazing!

    The ride is better on the FX 21 than the FX 20 and the extra 8"you definately notice as it's all on the front deck. Both are great boats. I don't have the hydraulic plate on mine, nor the poles which in my opinion was short sighted by me. I'll probably add those this winter if I don't sell mine, this fall.

    Thanks for all the replies gentlemen! It'll be quite a difference from riding in a 90mph tourney loaded boat to a 70mph boat but I think I've alrdy made the decision to switch. Any other info would be greatly appreciated!
