Congratulations Luke!! The boat looks awesome and the setup is on point, c'mon. Gotta say that I am a little jealous. Keep the videos coming my friend.
Very awesome boat 21feet of happiness right there really enjoy watching all of your awesome videos keep up the great work can't wait to see some awesome fish catches man
Awesome boat and I hope you don't have to use the measuring board but I have to say I was really eyeing the beautiful blue and white Champion in the 1st part of the video while you were still at the Bass Tank. The Xpress is nice and tight lines in 2021 and most of all be safe and have fun.
Freaking awesome ride man. Just helped my dad install his new garmin force on his boat and he loves it his only complaint is that the prop on it is pretty brittle (caught a pole timber crappie fishing) other then that he loves it and his 1056 garmin unit. I like the color choices as well differently fits you. Keep up the great work. LBL for life.
I run an Express for 17 years. Great boat, well built, will take a pounding. Note* I hope they redesigned their coolers. Mine didn't do very well in the summer.
I'm a fan of BIG aluminum boats, since brother has an older custom built F&F 21ft utility boat for running the Mississippi River... love the Sea Deck. Haven't wanted a boat until I saw yours... You're a Bad UA-cam Influencer 🤣 🍺🎣🍺🎣🍺🎣 Thanks for Sharing Luke
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus I'm actually restoring a Vintage 1974 Alumacraft Yukon II 17ft to be an all around fishing / bass boat... I've had some really nice BIG Boy toys in my life. Enjoying the simpler things now... Raises & showed horses for years $$$ 🍺🎣🍺🎣🍺🎣
Looks like a super solid boat. The future of bass boats is here!!! I always enjoyed my ol bass tracker because I wasn't afraid to bump it getting into back water holes. My champion 203 wouldn't like bumping trees to often. What kinds of speeds are these getting loaded?? Can they run with a fiberglass boat and still be stable on the water?
I really like what they did for the co angler side of the boat and the two different ways to put rods. that looks like a very comfortable spacious boat. I like the handles to hold on to. I like everything about it actually!! but I was just pointing out a couple things that stuck out to me. the deck is absolutely enormous, I've seen one in person they are huge!!! but I've never paid attention to that Co angler side of the boat. that's a pretty cool idea for the dividers and that side mini rod deck!! Awesome. Lucky sucker.
I order and Xpress H18 with sea dek can’t wait till it comes in. I’m super excited. My first boat so I started with a 115 Yamaha. My next one will be an X21
I need to test drive one of these. I am curious to see how it handles in chop. I hear a lot of good things by my back will be the judge. Nice ride LD!!! Glad you finally got it home.
I love rigging boats. It’s like therapy to me. Been using Velcro. I used to be a PM of a low voltage company and that’s how we dress media closets. I’m supposed to hear back from Pro-Guide in the next few days so hopefully I’ll be on the team with you 💪🏻
Good Lookin boat Luke! Just bought my Panoptix bundle from the Bass Tank Guys! Wish I would have known about them when I picked up my FXR in Oklahoma last month. Would have had them rig my new boat also.
Finally! Sick boat dude. I haven't walked on the Sea Deck before, so im interested to get your thoughts. Velcro, velcro?? That's the best the boys at Bass Tank came up with? Lol, love it. Simple and no explanation required! Hopefully you'll be able to haul that through the ice and snow and get it in the water.
I KNEW what you were gonna play first on your boat...it looks great,by the way. "I got 3 good tires and a spare"Just a white line gypsy getting outta Mississippi"
Love it Tin Man !! Luke when you figure out or find the way to put your Power Poles to Sleep , Please let us know if ya will!!! Be safe coming back to the Great State of Tennessee !!!
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus Yeah I got ya there but theirs supposed to be a way where you can put the units to sleep , so that the blue tooth isn't constantly looking for that signal . Ense the reason the green light blinks all time , that's what it's doing when blinking while put up . It does put a slight drain on battery & although your answer would solve the problem , I was told you could hold both up & down on any one of your controls and that would put them to sleep . I do always turn my breakers off but I guess its wired through and would have to install it's own breaker sort a speak and one could simply put units to sleep instead . Thanks for reply Hope your safe and sound back in Tn. bud .& Rig is just as it were when ya left lol
Doggone Luke, that's a sweet rig brother! Can't help but notice the ChampioN in the background. The one boat that I've owned, and miss is my old ChampioN.
@@steezyboiiii808 I have the VT18 which got replaced by the XF I think. My boat doesn't have carpet in it also and I believe they used the same size doors as the carpet version. I love my boat but do think the fit and finish is what it's lacking.
Dude my dad has an xpress boat built basically wide open for catfishing and its absolutely an amazing boat, we fish Ohio River by Shawnee town, he rhino lined it before they came out with the non carpet stuff
What size shaft is your garmin force? 50 or 57? I run the same boat and was thinking about buying one, but when people do their walk through they do not specify the shaft lenght of the force. thanks .
I’m dying to get the same thing, I’ve put it off for a couple years now but it’s getting harder and harder lol. From what I’ve seen of the seadeck it’s pretty durable. It will show wear but not as fast as carpet under hard use conditions. Sweet ride now go knock a hole in the ice and flip one on the deck
Well done Luke, beautiful boat , I have one question : The front lifting lid for your rod locker, compared to the side opening on other boats. Will that be better or worse to get your rods out? Good luck for this year.. At least you will look good fishing that's for sure.. lol
Falcons boats or the same way but yes it works better cause when u open your lids while rods or strap down they only go up in the air and not over the side of your boat I've broken tips off rods with my rangers welll the new nitro boat lol lol
Sick looking boat man. I'm curious how they would be in big water. Lake Ontario specifically. They seem like a great priced rig as well. Good luck with it👍👍🤙
I saw somebody said that their boat had a cooler between the seats and they found theirselves drinking more water so I would definately use the middle one as the cooler
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus How about stains? I worry about blood etc seeping into that material. It does seem like it'd be SUPER comfortable and easy on your feet/joints during a 10 hour day.
not a fan of the garmin live scope mounted on the trolling motor. its too hard to control your boat + scan area especially in the wind imo . changed mine the metal pole mount.
Nice Luke! About time right? Your SeaDeck color choice is gnats ass! Love that thang! On another quick note, if you are doing nothin(which I know you hardly have time to do), and you wanna badass new show to binge on, check out "YOUR HONOR" on Showtime starring Bryan Cranston. DUDE! I'm going to bed now cuz I just finished binge watching the whole first season! Anyway, love the boat! LBL'ER FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE! 👊
Everything about that boat was awesome till you turned on that awful music! On a serious note i Love the seadek color you chose and im glad to see you got it on the floorboard. Heard some people opted out of it and regretted it. Killer setup, its my dream boat for sure.
Guess you can’t beat free... I fished out of one of these a few times, super slippery and always moving like your in a Canoe, Burning hot on hot days you touch the metal are you getting burnt, all the compartments leek like crazy. Just a junk cheep boat, Luke skeeters calling .... pick up the phone!!
Man, I wish I had a free boat. Where do you get those? Point me in the direction. Fished in 80 degree weather yesterday with 3 people. Wasn’t hot and Didn’t feel like a canoe to me. I think I’ll stick with the boat I paid for. Thanks for your contribution.
That boat looks amazing!! That @The Bass Tank work is unreal as well...Oklahoma at its finest, hard work to perfection. Boomer!!!
Congratulations Luke!! The boat looks awesome and the setup is on point, c'mon. Gotta say that I am a little jealous. Keep the videos coming my friend.
Looking good LD! I’m glad you’re happy with it and finally have it!!
Very awesome boat 21feet of happiness right there really enjoy watching all of your awesome videos keep up the great work can't wait to see some awesome fish catches man
That thing is amazing! And might I say, since I have found your channel and podcasts, I'm hooked!! Great stuff man!

Looks like a real nice boat Luke inside & out. Have fun, be safe.
Nice ride LD. Love the color. Can’t wait to hear how it handles ruff water from someone use to a glass ride.

Can’t wait for the final review after you have had it for a year. Right now I want one, hopefully I feel the same way in a year.
Glad you got your boat Luke. Enjoy it brother 🎣
Awesome man, proud for you. I definitely need stereo system in my boat. She will definitely scream down river fo sure. Sea deck looks comfortable.

Love it Tin Man !! Luke when you figure out or find the way to put your Power Poles to Sleep , Please let us know if ya will!!! Be safe coming back to the Great State of Tennessee !!!

Great looking boat LD !!
Your ride is $$$$$. Really like it
Doggone Luke, that's a sweet rig brother! Can't help but notice the ChampioN in the background. The one boat that I've owned, and miss is my old ChampioN.
Thank you Steve! Yeah that was one sweet Champion in the background.
Glad you finally got it
Me too! Now to enjoy it.
Man I do believe that'll be my next brand at least. That thing just looks alot more solid than my crestliner. Awesome looking boat!
What crest liner do you have I was looking at the Mx21 edition

@@burleyoutdoors4700 yea I was wondering what model you have good luck on getting your new boat though!
Great looking boat. Very neat until you get out on the water and hopefully a few green/brown fish on the sea deck and in the live well!
Love the boat awesome set up . Welcome to the tin boat wild side .
Thank you! And I’m proud to be here
Boat looks great. Really like the front deck on it.
Dude my dad has an xpress boat built basically wide open for catfishing and its absolutely an amazing boat, we fish Ohio River by Shawnee town, he rhino lined it before they came out with the non carpet stuff
The Vid that All LowLifer’s have been Waiting for 🙌🏽
Dang right it is. The Vid I’ve been looking forward to making forever.
Dream boat for sure !!
That rig is slick. Sure beats my ol kayak. One day I’ll join the ranks.
Thank you Dean! Nothing wrong with a yak man. As long as you’re floating you’re fishing.
I love my yak, but a boat is...well...a boat. Way more options on the water and the speed to get there.
That dude in the rod locker can eat corn thru a picket fence.
Luke u adding a TH marine hydrowave later? Awesome boat man great ride looks like .
good looking boat. i really like the sea decking.
Thank you! I LOVE that stuff.
What size shaft is your garmin force? 50 or 57? I run the same boat and was thinking about buying one, but when people do their walk through they do not specify the shaft lenght of the force. thanks .
Would be my dream boat. Maybe once I'm forced to upgrade I'll go for it. If one guy had this around us I bet they'd end up selling a ton of them.
You dont mind me asking what is the texture on your boat is that a non slip paint let me know thanks
It's a rhino lining!
Real happy for you!
What's total package weight with gear and fuel?
Nice man. Probably be rocking an x19 soon.
That's a sick boat! I like that you got one with a single console. A second console just seems like a waste of space.
Almost looked too tall and impairs the vision??
How long does it take to do all that from time you drop off to pick up
Does Garmin repair there products after six years? nice boat.ill have to keep Bass tank in mind for rigging.
They have great customer service
I’m dying to get the same thing, I’ve put it off for a couple years now but it’s getting harder and harder lol. From what I’ve seen of the seadeck it’s pretty durable. It will show wear but not as fast as carpet under hard use conditions. Sweet ride now go knock a hole in the ice and flip one on the deck
That rod locker is how I'd have it too!
One ? Does it have lights in the storage area ????
Yes. There are lights everywhere
Do your garmin units ever stop reading the depth at speed. My 93svuhd does anytime I'm over 40
Bout time boy, I've been designing mine recently also
How do you see driving with that huge graph
Perfectly fine 🤷🏻♂️
Still got alot of those Skeet rods laying around i seen
Very nice boat.
Looks great! Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine,
Thank you man! Loving this thing.

How long do you keep the boat? What is done with it when you get a new boat?
I saw somebody said that their boat had a cooler between the seats and they found theirselves drinking more water so I would definately use the middle one as the cooler
It’s definitely the perfect spot for a cooler
What was the top speed? couldn't see the graph!
Never got it to top speed... Dad got way too cold. Bailed out at like 68
👍🥶
Been waiting on this one. 🤤
Does the sea deck get hot in the sun
Fished on it yesterday in 80 degree weather all day barefooted. It was awesome!
She’s home !! So happy for ya man. You got a name for her yet ?
Looking good
How did I know that would be the song you play on the boat stereo?! Lol
Can you give us a rough idea on what you have into it $$$?
Going to be around the 60k mark with how I’ve got it loaded
That seadeck stuff seems like itd show the dirt way more than carpet.
And if it does you can wash it away in two seconds and it’ll be drive in 5 minutes. Trust me I NEVER want carpet again
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus How about stains? I worry about blood etc seeping into that material. It does seem like it'd be SUPER comfortable and easy on your feet/joints during a 10 hour day.

Definitely a nice boat. I’ll keep my carpet though. SoCal and AZ get hot and I’ll fish with no shoe or flip flops.
F'ing SWEET!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT.
Awesome boat.

Man that boat looks amazing! Do the lights under the gunwale come from xpress or are they aftermarket?
Thank you! Xpress offers that as a package from the factory

How Fast?
Low 70’s
Sweet!!
See guys, I told you Luke wasn’t a liar. He really does have a new X21 pro.
Could you run this boat in salt water also?
Absolutely! They also make a bay boat version of this
@@LukeDunkinsTravelingCircus sweet, ya I dont really care for the looks of the bay version but I want a boat that can handle lakes great and bays ok
Love it
I don't know why people call those cup holders......Those are 100% tackle storage!!!
Damn with all the graphs you have you have taken all the skill out of fishing.
I want an express so bad
I want first dibs when she goes for sale
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I want one.
You need one bro! You’d love it.
We all need one!!
Put a rod strap across the back
Only hold 4 partners rods
I dont wanna see your boat I wanna see that champion with the promax in the back
Yeah should have made a video on it instead of mine. Just didn’t have time.
