One of our neighbors down in Cocodrie just had a 28 ft. boat delivered. Took a ride on it and it is a machine. Custom made aluminum bay/hybrid. Anyone have any experience with these boats?

In my dreams. Post some of their boat pics and be sure to add NSFW to the title cuz that’s some boat porn.

Alex builds a beautiful Bay boat! His wiring is like art, and overall quality is 2nd to none. The boats are pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Guy down the street from PuraVida and I has a 28 with twin 300s. It looks like a fiberglass boat. It’s pretty nice

A 28’ with the 300’s will be my next one. Unbelievable craftsmanship, fit/finish, wiring, and paint.

No one builds a boat like Alex

That IS my next boat but may be 10 years before I destroy my current 17 year old bay boat. Seems like the perfect mix of a boat for Venice.

Probably cost as much as my house. No experience living that large.

A friend has a 26ft bay. Finest damn bay boat out there in my opinion. I never thought much about aluminum boats until I ran that one.

Yea they are pricey but it’s the last boat you would ever have to buy. Just repower when needed

I am hearing nothing but good things about American so far. We would be looking at a 26ft as well.

Haven't gotten that far yet. The 28 ft. boat is around 200k from what I understand.

I've talked to Alex on the pricing for the 28 with 300's. it was right around 185K.
