XPLORER CATFISH SERIES

If you chase big cats, you know it takes much more than a bobber and a big stick! Xpress Boats understands that. When we set out to design and build the finest all-welded aluminum, high-performance catfish boat, we knew you wouldn’t settle for anything less than our best. We build big cat tournament xcitement into every Xplorer Catfish Series boat we manufacture. The Xplorer Catfish Series is tough, it’s rugged, and built to run shallow, deep, rough, or flat-out! From the same company that brought you the “Original” all-welded aluminum, this incredible catfish boat is backed with 57 years of xperience and xcitement.

Testimonies

“The features I like most about my 2018 Xpress XP200 Catfish that I bought from Smith Motor Company in Hattiesburg, MS, are the size, layout, accessory rail system, and xtreme coat liner. I’ve had five people, three big coolers, a baitwell full of water, and the giant front livewell and the boat still performs excellent with the Yamaha 115. The decks are huge and comfortably fit three guys on the front deck. The full-length rod box allows me to walk the full perimeter of the boat without stepping down onto the floor. I also appreciate the accessory rail system and xtreme coat liner.”
