Anyone running one or ever rode in one? How well does it take rough water? I am looking to get into a bigger bass boat, but im not always the most gentle with my boats. Might go aluminum depending on the ride.

I'm curious myself. I looked at them at the Bassmaster Classic Expo in Houston this year, it's a really nice looking boat, appears very well made, just curious about the ride in rough water myself!

I have an H20B Express. I bought it used almost two years ago and I enjoy it thoroughly. I will not lie, I have gotten wet in VERY rough water, rolling waves and white caps on Lake Waco. But, for me, it is a great fishing boat. My top speed with a 115hp is about 32mph so I am often passed by those in their Nitro boats with 225hp motors running 70mph across the lake but it is a big step up from my kayak and allows me to fish many more places on the water either by myself or with others. The front and back decks are spacious and great for two or three people comfortably. I have had 5 people in the boat, 3 adults and two kids, but it becomes congested with that many and casting requires patience. Still fishing or trolling is better. I have considered upgrading to the 24 foot length which adds the intermediate step down from the from deck into the boat to help my father in-lay who has bad knees and is uncomfortable with the 16-18" step down. Any other questions, let me know.
