Xpress boat paint flaking/peeling

Anyone else having problems with the paint flaking away on their hull?? Bought a brand new Hyper-lift bay boat, and the paint is peeling badly underneath (and starting up the sides). Dealer says I have to un-rig the hull, then they will send back to Xpress, and after a 3-4 month wait I'll get it back and have to re-rig

I remember a few years ago a guy here had that problem.
Only places mine flaked was on the console and it was small pieces

so you got the most versatile boat in the world and can't use it anywhere?
I'd run all over a bunch of logs and trash the already crap paint job until January. Send it back and have it ready for spring.

Mine is a 2012 20' CC. Sent back twice (jan of 12 and 13)
Holding up good so far.
I just got my stuff off the boat, they de rigged at factory
Pain in the arse for something new.

When did you buy your boat, bootlegger?

I'll hold a pecker in my mouth before I let the paint on my aluminum boat keep me from fishing for 3-4 months.

I have a '13 h20b and my paint scratches if you look at it wrong but it's not defective like yours. I have talked to a guy that his boat was doing just like yours and have heard many others with that problem. I fish year round so I don't think I could be out of a boat 3-4 months! I am worried mine will start to do like yours in the next year or two. I have some paint chips coming off on the keel that I can only assume will get worse. I say, it's the bottom of the boat, Screw it, you run over oysters and stumps all the time so it will eventually look like that....but then again I do my best to keep my shite nice so I'd want it fixed too.
Also, I've heard it takes some guys a lot longer than 3-4 months to get it back.
