A good friend of mine who worked for Forest Wood and family has the first 20 glass boat they produced. It is a deep hull and has a lot of great features. Personally I can't get past the look's. Just not my style. However I was there when a gentleman tried to buy it CASH money. So some folks must like it.

I never see Falcons down here in south east texas. Is the brand a flop. Heck no. Never see Allison's anywhere. Is the brand a flop. Definitely not. I have been seeing Falcons at Rayburn lately, no Vexus though. Not saying they are a flop, but man are they ugly.

Saw a Falcon at Conroe over the weekend. Sharp looking boat!!
Have seen the Vexus aluminum and it's a good looking boat. The fiberglass with the weird handles on the side I wouldn't prefer but it's not a deal breaker.

I've seen 1 tin and no glass ones around rayburn. Definitely not the revolution they hoped for. With the fxr and caymas coming out and imo being much better looking boats I'm sure that hurt them

You haven't seen many, because there isn't many out there. I doubt they make as many as Skeeter and Ranger per year, but also how many boats do you see that are older than 3 years old (or however old Vexus is). It's going to take a long time to catch up to market inventory levels as Skeeter and Ranger that have been making boats for 40+ years and likely 40% of them are still being used.

One of the most highly anticipated flops in fishing? DFW is bass boat capital of world I I have seen exactly one on the tin cans and zero of the big boats. I'am gonna call them a flop, at least the Fiberglass Version. I saw them at the boat show, the fiberglass one are awful ugly looking I was very disappointed in them

not sure how accurate this might be but I heard a well known pro say that because of the phenomenal growth of high school fishing,every bass boat manufactor is selling every boat they can produce.

Pretty sure i saw the same boat, Slick looking rig. There is a guy in Conroe that has a aluminium Vexus, but that's the only one i've ever seen outside of the internet!

Same as caymas. Boatworld dropped Triton ranger to be a skeeter caymas dealer. They aren't going anywhere anytime soon White River Marine is a beating to deal with and have fun Triton and Ranger in the ground, customer service is terrible and treat the dealers like chit. I had just received my 2020 triton and had the offer to go to Caymas and glad I did. Cliff at TBW has sold several in just a few weeks and has more on order.

It was a FLOP from the moment they posted pics of that UGLY stepchild of a boat.
