Your gonna have to ride in both and fish out of them for a day and make your own judgement!
Be sure and fish out of both that are at least 5 yrs old and look at the fit and finish on them..

Correct..."formost" is spelled foremost...unless you meant for most![]()
There is quite a bit of difference in them. Construction, materials, layout, speed(same exact setup and load will be about 5-7 mph is what I have experienced. I have two friends that have ran/owned multiple bullets and blazers and this is the info they gave me)..
really the only thing I can see that looks somewhat similar is the way they look when viewing each hull from the side.
Substantial price difference as well. Ride and go over each brand with a fine tooth comb and you will see what I am talking about
Finally a serious answer thank you.![]()

Merc is right, there are alot of Blazers in my area, and a 20' blazer with a 250, is about 3mph slower than my 20' Bullet with a 225. They are very similar when talking about the hull design, but the cap is very different. I was also told that these were not all hand laid, but I havent seen that myself so I can only go by what I have heard. Hope this helps, btu you gotta ride to decide.![]()

What he said.
Also I hear that parts for blazers can be hard to come by.
I have owned both a 2001 202 Blazer and now own a 2002 21 xdc Bullet... Both are great boats... The 21XDC Bullet is just a tad faster than the 202 Blazer with exact same 250 XS and my Bullet seems to carry a load a bit better than the Blazer did . The Bullet floats higher out of the water at rest, especially in the stern... The Bullet seems to be a bit better quality, but , I will tell you there is nothing wrong with the Blazer either... The hull design looks to be exactly the same , except the Bullet has Kevlar reinforcement in critical areas.. The deck/caps are different looking ... You can,t go wrong with either boat is the bottom line... 21 ft. Strokers and Allisons are quite a bit faster however , if being fastest is most important...![]()
I don't know about Blazer but customer service is second to none at Bullet.
Look on the inside of the boats Bullets and Blazers you will se the fit and finish of a Bullet is a work of art.![]()
GE I cannot spell very well but I can go fast.

The biggest difference i've noticed is the attitude of the owners.

I agree that there are many proud brand loyal boat owners from all makes. Some more than others, But at the end of the day, they are all just boats and we are all just owners/humans.![]()

I've seen this comparison made MANY times over the years. Bullet owners say the Bullet is better and most Blazer owners will say a Blazer is just as good. There are quite a few ex-Blazer owners who will say that the Bullet gets the nod on the better built boat. One thing I have noticed, I don't know that I have ever seen a Blazer owner say that a Blazer is better than the Bullet.
I think that a Blazer is probably not a bad boat; I just feel that a Bullet is a better built boat and probably a tad faster but Blazer will run well if you put the time in. IÂve found that a Bullet is easier to drive at speed too. It all comes down to do you want to spend the extra money for the Bullet. I of course do feel itÂs a good move to go Bullet. After all, check out the history; a Blazer is a boat that is trying to be a Bullet.
Discipline is the key, if you can't hack it, pack it!
