What’s New for Xpress Boats 2027 Model Year?

Xpress Boats celebrates our 60th anniversary this year. It is amazing how far we have come from our humble roots at a small schoolhouse in Friendship, Arkansas, to the state-of-the-art manufacturing facility where we currently produce boats in Hot Springs.

As we celebrate six decades of innovation and craftsmanship, we’re also looking ahead—and 2027 promises to be one of the most exciting model years in Xpress Boats history. From fresh updates to exciting new features, there is plenty on the horizon for boaters who demand more from every adventure on the water. We want to let you know that we are hard at work updating our website so we can begin showing you all of the exciting changes we have in store for the 2027 model year. In the meantime, this page summarizes all of the major changes and updates across all six of our all-welded aluminum boat series. Thank you for your patience during this transition time.
