I have a 2003 21'and have owned a 1977 23' Sceptre and also a 1969 20' CC. Like others have said the 21 seems like a 23 with 2 feet chopped off. It rides extremely well and feels like a much bigger boat than the 20 did. The 20 cc is a small 20 and and at the time I had it it was the perfect boat for both offshore and inshore. It was easy to trailer and to handle. For it's size it rides better than other comparable boats. The 21 is a fairly big 21 and along with that comes the need for more HP and tow vehicle, not to mention more fuel. I would love to have gotten a 23 but it was too much boat for me at the time. Now since I have the 21, I don't think I would consider moving up to the 23 because there is not all that much difference between them.
