    20'er Questions

    I've pretty much got my mind set that I want a 21'er, but, I've seen a couple 20'ers that I really like.

    How does the front deck on a 20'er fish with 2 people? do you feel kinda crammed? My tournament partner/brother doesn't seem to ever wanna back up off my junk while we're fishing (and he really doesn't bother me). Anybody know how long the deck is on a 20 from furthest point of carpet to the edge of the stepdown?? This way i can compare to the boat i have now.

    2nd...Around what does a 20'er run with a 225 SportXS with a 2 man fishing load? Thanks guys!

    I have never fished out of a 20' Bullet. I have a 20' Ally now and it can get kind of cramped at times. I had a 21' Bullet and I think you could fish 4 people up there and not get in each others way. Seriously the 21' deck is HUGE!

    the 21 is the better tourney platform in my opinion. Has larger front deck and rides better

    You can fish 2 on the front of a 20. I had a 20xdc for 4 years and did it all the time. The 21 does have alot more up front so its alot nicer but it can be done with a 20. The 20xrd has more deck up front than the other 20ft models so I dont think you would have any problem with one of those.

    I have had not problem fishing two in the front of my 20xrd. The 21's deck is bigger, but I have not had any trouble what so ever fishing 2 in the front. I had a 20xd with a 225 proxs on it. It had a sporty lu with 1.62 gears in it and it would run mid to low 80's with 2 loaded to fish, and get good fuel mileage doing it
