I am taking this time to do some research before any commitment is made. I believe the motor I would like to have fitted on the Xpress boat would be a 115 hp 2-stroke yamaha. I know 4-stroke motors are nice but I like a 2-stroke motor.
Considered a fiberglass boat, but I fish the river a lot and think an aluminum boat would be a better option. Plus, the fiberglass boats are a little too expensive for me.
Was curious what you guys thought of the Xpress boats. Are their boats quality fishing rigs? Also, the H-18 boat is fitted with a yamaha motor. Is the yamaha motor a dependable motor?
Thanks for your input, Huck.
