    Re: Stroker, Bullet, & Allison Boats

    I am not sure where everyone is getting that the E-Tech has the best fuel mileage. All the test that Bass And Walleye boats magazine has done shows the E-Tech is the worst of the 3. With Merc Opti being the best, Yamaha 2nd and E-Tech 3rd. As far as oil consumption, E-tech does win, However only when the engine is programmed to use the XD-100 oil. The XD-100 oil is around $35 a gallon Vs. 24.00 for the XD-50 or Merc Opti oil or Yamlube. All thses engine are great motors compared to the 2 stroke outboards of the past, it really comes down to, pick the one you like and buy it.
    As far as the most efficent boat, I would say either the Bullet or the Allison, I sell Bullets and I think these are the best fishing boats of the 3, The fuel milage with a Bullet is awesome. I do think the Allison is a tad bit better on fuel, however initial cost of a Allison is substantially more and resale of a Bullet is better due to more demand.
    If I can help you in any way, please feel free to give me a call.

    The Stroker is an awsome fishing platform and has a great resale value also
    and will run with a Bullet
