Bought one a year ago and never looked back! There price and the service is hard to beat. Kyle will take as much time as you need and will not rush you or push you in any way. If you need to take a ride in one there are a few people on here that wouldn't mind including myself!

Let me tell you this story about Lake Area Marine. I bought a trailer from them for my flat boat. When I drove it home to Deridder, I kept hearing a noise. I looked at the wheels when I got home and Lake Area had forgot to tighten the lug nuts, and the lug nut holes were now warped. Well, that sounds bad, but what impressed me is how they took ownership of their mistake. They came all the way to Deridder and picked up my trailer, fixed it and then brought it back to me. Anyone can make a mistake, it's how you take responsibility for mistakes that separates a good business from a mediocre one. I was impressed from Lake Area Marine and would buy a boat from them.....and might!

2104 Looks way better on the inside and has a 50 gallon tank vs 43 in the 210. Also the 210 looks like an unfinished boat. Basically Roll gunnal boat with a cap.

The 2104 is probably 4-5 grand more and heavier so id say the ride has to be better..
It eats the chop no problem! And dry ride.
That is all.....

21 open series is plain jane

210 is capped version tweener model...clean decks, same storage as 2104, jump seats, etc....But it has the splatter paint floor

2104 is fully lined and clean looking

I'd put a 175 Suki or a 200 Yammy on it.

Take a look at specs btw the in- line 4 yam 200 and suzuki 175. Compare the two.

I would recommend the 175 Suzuki all day over the 200 Yamaha unless you want to spend the money on the SHO.

I get exact same numbers on mine that Alphman posted.
