re: Xpress has a new bay boat line out ... the XBay Series

Except for the dry storage not being dry I'm totally satisfied with my 22' Xpress. I bought in '11. It handles rough water well, it works great in Big Lake when the water is rough and we are fishing the oyster reefs. Don't have to worry about chipping the fiber glass. Works great for tieing up under bridges. Works great when we night fish for white bass. Also when we make brush piles at Toledo, we use my boat. It's my first boat and I have no regrets of buying it. I can hit shite and not worry about it. Do trout lines, jug lines, etc. Easy to keep clean, lots of room. Easy to push off a big arse stump last month I stuck it on last month

As far as speed, mine goes 50 which is all I need.

Now if you're talking about strictly bass fishing, there's no logical reason to me.
I have several other people I bass fish with that have nice boats.
