This video was done in brackish water! Make sure the Xpress purchased (or any aluminum boat for that matter used in saltwater) has the saltwater trailer package. The package consists of removing the carpet from the trailer bunks and replacing with a poly slick cover. When the salt gets trapped in-between the bunk boards and your boat, it will start an electrolysis reaction and begin to "pit" or eat pin holes under the contact surface of the boat. Add a little bit of electrical current and you speed the process up. I have multitudes of customers using these boats in Galveston Bay, TX without issue. Failing to prepare is preparing to fail! Thanks for reaching out! I just put together a H190 Bay for a customer with a VF115, and a bob's 6" Jackplate and got 53.8 MPH out of the boat! Hole shot is incredible. We are working on more videos for you guys, just busy as all get at the store. Tight lines!
Gotta say these are fun to build
How is it in rough water
Would you recommend for this for saltwater use?
