I own the 22' Sea Hunt with a 150 Yami. With 3 guys I cruise at 20-23 knots with WOT ~35 knots.
I'd suggest more than a 115 on the 21'

I have friends with the 21 Striper DC and the 21 SeaHunt CC - both with 150s and both are fine. I would not consider less power on them though.

The dealer (Inland Marine-Chepachet RI) says they regularly sell these boats with F115s and the Yamaha 115 is strong motor. He says at 3800 rpms the boat cruises at 28 knots (gps speed). I struggle to believe it. I know Yamaha makes great motors but...

That's BS 33 mph @ 3800 rpm with a 115 is BS. That would be real hard with the 150 me thinks |

I agree- Maybe he said mph instead of knots but I still think that bull.
Hopefully I'll be able to see during a trial--if we get that far. |

I looked and found the Yamaha / Sea Hunt performance bulletin on that (knew I had seen one) so you can check for yourself. Keep in mind they probably tweak these for the best possible results like days when the earth's gravitational pull is reduced to make the water less dense - stuff like that

I talked to that guy at the show and heard that same story. They seemed to be doing more drinking thatn pitching their boats. I felt it was underpowered and thought also the sea hunt weight was light for a fiberglass boat. I decided to buy a key largo with a 150hp instead. |

Clammer has a 21 Seahunt with a Yammi 150 EFI - it is a well build, good riding, hull. And it can put up with ClammerExtremeMissions.
Clammer Extreme missions require a hull to remain in the water for 18 month INtervals, require integral underhull skid pads, levitation based degrounding capabilities, and a glassed in rock-magnet. The maintenance schedule is such that maintenance is optional. Said vessell has also vindicated itself with the Seal Team 19 3/4 Bluefish Eradication missions.
Seriously, it's a pretty good hull. You do notice the lightness on occasion when compared to an old Seacraft 20, but it is a lot drier too...

Both Clammer and #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& highly recommend Sea Hunts- I put a lot of stock in that because I know how much time they spend on the water! |

That speed is on Watermans Lake... The boats seem to run a little faster in calm ponds. He could be talking MPH and not Knots..
Clam boat on Watermans reported 45 on the bay with two people 30-40 Knots flat out in ideal conditions.. It will handle some decent sized water. |

I have the 2101 DC Seaswirl with a Yamaha 150 HPDI and get 40 in good seas 42 in flat seas. If it was a four banger I would go with 200 as you will not like the pickup even with a 150 four.
Hi John sorry I could not make the TFCTF night.:-(
