HullSpeed SMART ARMOR, the coating that’s making the difference when it counts.

 Mike Iaconelli ran aground on the bank of the Sabine River, TX after hitting a submerged log. He had SMART ARMOR on his hull… and ran the same boat/hull for the rest of the tournament, and the season. Randy Howell noticed an 11% fuel economy improvement which allowed him to run further without re-fueling and save $$$ during practices and tournaments.

”I’m super excited that HullSpeed will be joining The Bass University as an official sponsor!” says Mike Iaconelli, co-founder of The Bass University. “HullSpeed has become a key piece of equipment on my bass boat over the last few years and has so many benefits to every angler who owns a boat. For me, some of the best benefits include: better top end speed, better hole shot, ease of handling, longer trolling motor life, and keeping the boat bottom protected and clean. HullSpeed is going to become standard equipment for anglers who want to get better performance, durability, and gain a competitive advantage over the competition.”

Protection and durability of a fishing boat, especially a bass fishing boat, is a top concern for any angler. In order to catch all types of fish, you need to find them first. Sometimes finding them means putting your boat through rough water and over grass, logs, sand and more but, now anglers are doing that with more confidence and peace of mind.
