Friends of Mine that hungs 4S off the back have to use alot of Tab, or even but wieght up front, anchor...
I loved my 21, Never Ever did I feel unsafe in it and I ran out in just about everything, never missed a commercial day, tourney cause of weather. Rarely did I ever cancel a charter. Its an awesome handling boat in rough weather. i looked forward to fishing 20 Knots Plus.... I did have two near sinkings, but that was my fault... Went bigger to save the back and joints some, and to make my charters a much more pleasure... My first motor on that 21 had 2000 hours, I had way, way more anchor / drift time on her... Definately miss that boat.... And I would not put a TTOP on that boat! I dont know of a better riding true 21 on the Market, that 24.5 degree dead rise is awesome.... No other boat has it in its class.

There's nothing like a 21 'tender in buzzards bay with gale conditions. A little bumby, official tough guy tattoo required, a little wet, dry suit and tanks......ahhh, what a day. |

High pressure Direct Injection... Just like Merc DFI.. Nearly twice the efficiency as the older 2 strokes and less oil consumption...

You have the Saltwater Series EFI. Remember you were thinking of upgradijng to the direct injection motor? That is the HPDI. |

The big block HPDI's are fuel efficient... Only run on 4 cylinders under 1800 RPM... Great reliable motors. I think yamaha currently just makes a 200... Everything is going direction of 4S... |
