It's a new model they built for me. It's just like the H-18PFC but 2' longer, and bigger engine. It has all the toys on it. The PFC's come with 2 huge livewells, and three across seating, etc. the PFC's are the crappie, multi species model.

Dude...can you ever quit selling and just be serious? Those are fine Aluminum boats but none can come close to a big glass boat for fishability and comfort. I fished this morning in 3' rollers and caught fish, you would have drowned.

No, that's my job. Can you quit -- never mind. As always, Your right. Pfffftttt.

I guess they should stop makin aluminum Bay Boats if according to YOU, they can't handle 3 foot rollers. To each their own. Not everybody can afford a Ranger, but Xpress does make the BEST aluminum boat out there for tough conditions!!!!!

**"G"** · 10-27-2012, 12:10 PM

yeh....but I would have to buy another one just like it

The next one I get will have more room on the front deck whatever it is, the boat Bill and I fished out of (sorry Bill that I dont remember which one it was) and Dickie's War Eagle both had PLENTY of room up front. My boat lacks that, it'll do but niether of those tin boats road near as good as the glass does. There are some FINE tin rides out there now a days but I still dont think they compare to the glass boats, if they did I highly doubt Andy would have looked all over the country for his Ranger he is in now.

I didn't say a tin boat was better than a glass boat. I said you didn't have to have a glass boat to seriously tourney fish. I also said I could control my Xpress tin boat in any conditions. I also said the Xpress Pad Ride boat is the best Tin boat out there on rough water, and it is. I'll go with anybody out there on a wicked day and we can ride the Xpress against ANY other tin boat on the market and we'll see. I'm open to the date.

I paid my sponsor membership so I could advertise and sell on this site. If anyone has a problem with that, call Slab. I'm sure he'll tell how it works. It's also against the rules to criticize a members business. I have references if ya need em.

Thanks for the post Rees, that boat we went in was an Excel, and they do ok in rough conditions, but not like the pad ride Xpress.
