Some of you saw this on crappie.com. Here she is for the ones that didn't see it. My wife actually suggested that I buy a bigger boat so our entire family could go out at the same time. Boys when your wife tells you to buy a boat, buy a boat. I had 4 requirements. 20', aluminum, center console bay boat, and 4 stroke motor. I really wanted and Xpress but those are rare as hens teeth unless you buy a new one and I was not buying a new one. I looked all over the SE on Craigslist for 3 days and couldn't find one. Tuesday morning I found this one near Clanton and immediately headed that way. It's a 2016 20 Bay DLX. It has a new Solix 12 SI on the bow and a new 80 lb Ultrex MSI I pilot link TM on the bow. Both those were put on this spring. I'll likely sell the Ultrex and get an Ulterra. If anyone is interested in trading on that, shoot me a PM. I'd swap it dead even for a new Ulterra I Pilot link without the SI or DI ducer built in. Klay gets first right of refusal on a trade. With Livescope I rarely use my bow mount unit for anything other than waypoints or a map. ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/ROfSab1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/EcHoHZX.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/oIG5ux7.jpg)

Thanks guys. If anyone is looking for a good older boat I’ll be putting my fully restored 1998 Xpress H54 (18’ 6”) for sale once I get everything swapped over to the new ride.

That boat is worthy to have its pick taken in front of jacks 😀 👍

I'm hurt. You was at Durbin farms and I didn't even get an invite. 🤔

Thanks guys. It's going to expand my fishing range a bunch. I'm not use to not having to play the wind to determine where I put in and where I fish. This boat is big enough that I feel confident in crossing the big water on G pretty much any time. I'm not careless enough to go out when it's dangerous, but it's a much larger boat than my old one.
I got the Solix taken off the bow, and the Helix taken off the console this afternoon. We ate lunch after church, then got busy on it. My son took everything out of it while I removed the electronics, then we took it to the shop for a good scrubbing and hot water pressure washer bath. The boat had a lot of that most of the state red dirt staining on the insides and on the trailer. The boat is now spotless, but I may have to acid wash the trailer. I tore the hubs down as soon as I got it home, cleaned, inspected and repacked the bearings and they desperately needed it. I'm going to swap props on it before I take it back out and see if a more aggressive rake gives me a little more top end speed. If there was one thing I could change about the boat, I'd swap the 115 for a 150. I don't know how much top end speed I'd gain, but she'll run about 40 right now. I'm surprised that a boat that big isn't rated for more than a 150.
Outback, I was just there long enough to pee and get some peach ice cream.
