Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 vs Starcraft Marine Patriot 140 2004 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 vs Starcraft Marine Patriot 140 2004 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 6 hp for the Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 and 4 hp for the Starcraft Marine Patriot 140 2004. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Starcraft Marine Patriot 140 2004 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Starcraft Marine 2100 RE 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 12 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Starcraft Marine Patriot 140 2004 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
