I have been ready trying to decide whw eat crappie boat to order and the 18 PFC was the way I was leaning. I went to Bassboatcentral web site and went on press and seen bad things about press right now with quality. People refusing there boats they orde red because they are that bad. Man I am stumped.o am stumped. Now what? I guess maybe deep v Lund. I just don't know about deep v. Well there 1775 looked ok. Maybe I would like it once I got it. Anybody else here this on Xpress?

Go ride and fish out of one. I had one and loved it. My uncle has one.

Well I know someone will be a long shortly to talk about Xpress more. I have only used them as duck hunting boats.

I use my fiberglass bass boat for crappie fishing and it has tons of room and rides smooth even in choppy waters and wind does not effect it as much as a Deep V. Unless I am fishing solely small bodies of water like oxbows and creeks and ponds I dont have a use for aluminum boats any more. On big water if you go aluminum go big!

Boats are like "cups". You gotta get the one that fits.

i own one....17' and i love it. i understand there are some fit and finish issues. the rest of the package is supposed to be great, according to the same sources that fault the fit and finish. maybe you can use the fit and finish problem as a lever for a better price....then handle those problems your self, if you are handy with your hands,,,,,,,,just a thought....

His nick is BigRiverMarine and he post his phone number right on his post for anyone to call 7 days a week, met Bill (BigRiverMarine) at the MS Fall camp and very nice fella and he would be more than glad to help you out Im sure

Yes I've talked to him. I am not good with my hands. Need boat to be right. This Guy said that you can guarantee you will have no dry storage. Does your boxes all get wet? I really like this layout and boat but to put down a chunk of change they require just to order one and if it came in and wasn't right they have your deposit. I cannot afford this to be a bad boat. It will be my last boat and have saved to pay for it.

I own a 22ft. HD model and I like the boat a lot. Dry storage is non existant and I deal with it with plastic bags and boxes. All boats have different issues and a little more thought on the manufacturers part could have solved the dry storage problem. Check with Xpress and see if they will let you visit their factory.
Good luck on your search
