I wonder if it will have a "Z" in the nomenclature.
Anyone got the scoop on it yet?

Seems like there should be a market around the 150k price point. And please don't put ridiculous looking wings on it.

"MOST" non-competes are usually 1 year. It appears this one could have been a 2 year. I would not think there will be any lawyers involved, this kind of thing happens all the time. My company bought another for $40,000,000 and a year later, after the non-compete clause was up, he starts another just like it and takes his old customers back. Happens all the time. Heck, he might pay them to not even start producing

My hope is they price a little cheaper or they are going to have trouble making it. Still hard(for me) to get past Ranger name(all I've ever owned). Reduced price produced by this bunch could sway me ??? WHY ??? if you make something of good quality people will buy it. some people buy on price but there is ALWAYS a market for quality & expertise and sometimes that market is better than the low end gutter market. especially in non-disposable goods ,,,,,, like boats that are used for many many years. we are certainly not the cheapest product in our industry but we have no problem selling our products to the market......Plus we are an extremely profitable company paying our stockholders very well with dividends. Why not? Can't I hope for a cheaper price. IMO the boat market is already flooded(again, my opinion). you obviously have more expertise in this field, I was just stating my opinion as a boat owner

I dont know why but Vexus name doesnt work for me. Probably does for flat brim hat wearers. Maybe itll grow on me.

I know why... but it vexes me so! vex verb make (someone) feel annoyed, frustrated, or worried, especially with trivial matters. They want people to be annoyed with their boat? Or they are annoyed at the people that own them!
