If that's true..that would work for me...why are the excels so cheap...seems like it's just as nice as anything else?

alot of people don't like the sit down seats (no bolsters) the one I looked at had bolsters but the tops were above the windshield,I think that's why the 29 and 28xlt are more popular

Ok thanks for the input. I have to admit over 55 not having a windshiel is hard on your face

I wouldnt want to go much faster in that hull. Its more stable in a 1-2 ft chop at high speeds.
