    Advice on Lowe boats

    Re: Advice on Lowe boats The Man 5150, It should be about time to see some pictures of your new boat. I own the exact boat you're looking at and I love it. Did have paint and hull issues with my 2008, but since Lowe replaced the hull with new in 2011, no problems what so ever. Show us some pics...

    Lowe customer service ROCKS!!!!

    2007 FM-175 w/ 115-hp Optimax. After 3 new paint jobs (bad primer from factory) each winter back to the factory, Cabelas found a 6" long tear in the middle of my hull. Lowe factory picked it up and brought back to factory (again) to investigate. They gutted the boat and wanted to "patch it"...
