    Crikey, you're only a stetson away from the Village People there, Dan 😆
    Another great review, and an interesting boat 👍 👏

    I would like this boat with a cabin and a better aft sofa.

    Recommend watching the RUclips on XO’s factory in Poland. Conducted by a US guy. They bang out 3000-4000 of these alloy/ glass top beauties. Amazing factory with very good Lean manufacturing principles and great skills/ quality. They manufacture for Axopar, Brunswick etc.

    Hi Dan, great video! Given that this is aluminum hull and more prone to corrosion, how often does the boat need to come out of the water for maintenance?

      @BoatLife_DansBoatLife  2 месяца назад +1

      Annually she would need to come out for all the usual maintenance. You don’t actually have much exposed alloy because of the wrap and the GRP lid. I’ll ask around to see if that makes a real difference.

      I owned an XO and you do need to be careful with galvanic corrosion. Especially if the boat will be kept in a marina where shore power leaks of electricity will charge the seawater and increase galvanic corrosion rates significantly. When well looked after, with all the right anodes, these boats are amazing. The hull is as tough as nails.

    Military grade aluminum so as thin and cheap as possible. Great inshore however with that bow design and sunken forcastle it’s terrible for letting water in when bad weather threatens.

    How often does it stuff the bow?

    • @BoatLife_DansBoatLife
      @BoatLife_DansBoatLife  2 месяца назад +1

      It would be possible if you slammed it into a stand up wave exiting a bar for example on an outgoing tide. You really need to be driving it incorrectly to do that though.

      @@BoatLife_DansBoatLife I'm not sure I agree Dan! I owned the XO 270 Front Cabin (now EXPLR 10 S+) and that narrow vertical bow loves to cut through waves and, unlike a traditional US wide-flared bow, it will not decelerate the boat when doing so and there's plenty of lift as the beam starts to be immersed... But, as you say, you will ship water over the bow in much greater quantities than with a very flared centre console style and so you need to ensure there are very good scuppers in that forward seating area - or go with the forward cabin version where the water simply sluices straight off the deck.

      @BoatLife_DansBoatLife  Месяц назад

      @@WillBrocklebank I think we actually do agree here Will. 100% these hulls will slice up waves with ease and not decelerating like others. I have taken a few green waves into the bow on Axopar's but it was always in very heavy conditions and often when i was pushing the boat a bit too hard. Exiting a bar at the wrong time is one of those moments which is why i raised it... very valid point about the scuppers and opting for the cabin forward if you're worried. Good points!

      Well technically XO was around before all the other brands you’re thinking about. But yes I don’t think they are trying to appeal to everyone with this… I think that’s the point with this brand?
