This is for the serious duck and shallow water folks that test the limits in Florida. Many times have wished you didn't have to push, now you don't with a 3000 lb. built in winch from Excel.
Hardened 5086 Aluminum
Every boat we order from Excel comes with the upgraded aluminum package. The .125 aluminum in the F4 design is rigid as a brick s#@t house. The aluminum stringer / super structure is designed to keep the boats bottom from denting when running over logs.
