    Default Looking at a boat


    I'm beginning to look at a boat to replace my last one, bigger for safety's sake. The boat I'm currently interested in is an Xpress 20 foot CC bay boat. It's powered by a 150 4 stroke Yamaha and has a Minn-Kota Terrova I-Pilot on the front. Electronics are HDS 7 side scan and HB 788 (don't know which is mounted where). Has CNC hydrojack on motor and is rigged for spider rigging. Asking price is $28,000. And seller says it has 70 hours on the clock.

    I'm familiar with Yamaha 4 strokes and they are reliable but don't have any knowledge of Xpress boats. Are there things I should look for on the boat? And what about the price? About right, or a little high?

    Thanks

    I have a 05 Xpress and had a lot of trouble.
    Not impressed and Xpress would not fix it.

    The Yammy 4 stroke great motor.

    I have a 05 Merc 4 stroke 115 zero problem tons of hours
