Hello all, I got my first Xpress its a 2013 H51
It came set up with a 70hp Yamaha on a 6in manual jackplate. Trollng motor is a 55lb MK Edge.
Not looking for speed yet so don't tempt me haha.
This was the first boat other than my first jon boat that I was able to pay all cash for.
It's a great boat for the small lakes I like to fish in Virginia. I'm planning on putting a 20hp or 25hp outboard on it if I can find one. Since it has a narrow beam and is light weight I can get it on plane with one of the smaller motors mentioned above.
The fit and finish on this boat is actually better than what reviews I've been reading and better than Lowe and Tracker so I am really stoked!
It came with HDS gen 1 units an 8 inch on the Bow and a10inch at the console. The 8 inch has some lines on the screen that go away if you tap the glass.
Really liking that this is a DIY friendly boat that is easy to work on as far as plumbing for the livewell and all the electrical wiring goes.
