I've read a bit about them, nothing bad that I've seen. .125 hull, I believe. 15° deadrise should do ok in a bit of chop.

Have you seen the new G3 bay boats? They're pretty sweet. Look like the xpress bay series hull. Come with dual axle trailers with brakes.

The new G3 Bay has the same setup as far as storage and live wells as the Excel, but the Excel's are cheaper. G3 dealer in Beaumont said $34,500 for 20' G3 Bay with a Yamaha 150 SHO. Jerry's Marine told me they sold an Excel Bay Pro 22' with a Yamaha 150, not the SHO for lil over $30,000. Think the Excel Bay Pro 20' with 150 was $27,700 something.

I paid 31000 out the door. Not a bad deal from what I've been told. I priced, and checked out a lot of boats the last month, and the excel was cheaper for the exact same options than every other boat in its class. Also the fit and finish is heads and tails above the xpress h22b. Which is what I wanted when I first started looking.

Josh you like JayZ with that boat.

"I'm on to the next one on to the next one."

I would research that Excel they look sweet but they had lots of issues with the smaller boats.

That 22ft G3 looked nice, and a decent price.

Are you considering a fiberglass hull or Aluminum only?
