You gonna make sure it has dry storage and the boat has all shavings cleaned up and live wells work all correct and stuff. What about attention to detail on paint and carpet ect. That is now what I am worried about from what i am reading on Bassboatcentral web site on owners haveing problems major time refusing their boats they ordered ect. I just want it to be right for the $$$ spent on this thing. Where are you at in Arkansas?

Haven't heard ANY of that stuff, nor have I experienced it, but we will do all the things to get her right in the pre delivery.

I have NEVER had anyone refuse an order on any boat I've sold!!!! I'll have to read Bassboat central. Problems major time, and refusing boats they ordered? Everybody has a problem now and then, and I'll assure you that if you spend 100k, you can have a few problems, but major problems are an exaggeration from my experience, and I'm referring to ALL brands.

I've never seen a PERFECT paint job from any of the companies I've sold or dealt with. They all will have a few flaws, if you examine them with a fine tooth comb. Every painted aluminum brand out there is like that. Nobody paints them like a car, but Ive never had anyone question the paint either, and it stays on there!!!! Xpress' paint and finish is as good as, if not better than, anyone's.

I've also never had any habitual live well issues. I have had misc. issues with all brands that I've sold. If we didn't, we wouldn't need a warranty. LOL

Xpress boats are foam injected, so I don't know how they would get shavings out of them. If they did have shavings in the boat, the foam would hold them when it expanded and dried. I used to sell SeaArk, and they weren't foam injected, and they did have aluminum savings in the hulls, but they never caused a problem, we just picked or vacuumed them out.

The storages that are meant to be dry, stay dry. Live Wells are NOT dry.

If I've left some of your worries out, PM me and I will address them for you.

My shop is in West Memphis, AR. on I-40. Exit # 279A.

Thank You, Bill

Yes, they use the Talon though. I have a new Power Pole 8' at the store if you prefer those.

Well I think the power pole you can lower to get through garage door opening then raise back up where the talon you cannot do without taking completely off boat with tools. That would be a major pain every time you went fishing. I would prefer the talon if the height wouldn't be too tall.

Give me a height measurement of your garage opening, and I'll let you know if the Talon is too tall. I would like to know that for future reference. I have both devices anyway.

70 inches
