When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Striper 2105 Center Console 2010 and the Striper 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Striper 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 measures 33,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 11,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Striper 2105 Center Console 2010 at 21,5 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Striper 2105 Center Console 2010 tips the scales at 315 lbs — 208 lbs more than the Striper 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 at 107 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 600 hp, the Striper 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 has a 350-hp advantage over the Striper 2105 Center Console 2010's 250-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 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 carries 347 gallons versus 105 gallons in the Striper 2105 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 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Striper 2105 Center Console 2010 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Striper 3301 Walk Around O/B (Dual Engine) 2008 could be the deciding factor.
