Default anyone used PEX tubing for boat plumbing?

I didn't use it but now I wish I had. A little more trouble to route but a
heck of a lot cheaper than double stainless clamps on everything and a heck
of a lot neater installation. PEX, Qest and SeaTech fresh water systems
are becoming standard on many high quality production boats.

I'm almost in posession of a boat I may have to gut - was thinking
about all the new inovations in all the systems and was wondering if I
should consider PEX as an option for plumbing as opposed to hoses and
clamps.
anyone have any data experience with PEX and the marine environment,
vibrations, etc
thanks
