Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 vs Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 against a deep vee Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 at 18,5 ft versus Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 at 21,5 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 tips the scales at 328 lbs — 146 lbs less than the Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 at 182 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 250 hp, the Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 has a 100-hp advantage over the Striper 1905 Center Console 2010's 150-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 carries 105 gallons versus 35 gallons in the Striper 1905 Center Console 2010. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Striper 2101 Dual Console 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 6 passengers and at 21,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Striper 1905 Center Console 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
