Even though that boat is marketed to be run with a surface drive, it's still not a true mud hull. That means you won't get the full performance of the motor. Not only that, but most mud hulls are 1/8" or 3/16" thick. The xpress is only .100. If you're not planning on running many stumps, then that won't really matter. But it's also made of 5052 aluminum, instead of 5086, meaning it isn't as strong. If you're wanting just a fishing boat, then it'll get the job done, but if you're wanting a rig to put through hell and get you places most can't, the xpress isn't the boat for you. At least that's my .02 cents. |
