For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The ThunderJet Alexis Outboard - 21 ft. 2008 is rated for 6 passengers, while the ThunderJet Envoy 2009 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the ThunderJet Alexis Outboard - 21 ft. 2008 could be the deciding factor.
