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. You can fish outa anything and not catch fish...... Borden said you couldn’t catch the crabs at a hoe house.....

I saw a Vexus on Lake Fork about a month ago. Saw an Allison last weekend on Lake Tyler.

A little early to call it a flop. However, they are busier than a one legged man in a arse kicking contest, cleaning up the problems reported on social media. Especially, on the FB Vexus group.

My buddy has the tin 2080 and has had SEVERAL issues with not only the boat but with their service. The boat has been to Flippin and back twice with many heated conversations along the way. They finally slapped a brand new hull on. He likes the boat overall but he’s pretty damn sour about it for obvious reasons.
If you can't find em wind em.

I seen one a month ago at the ramp at fork. I really hadn’t been impressed with them so far ........... until I seen one in person ,,,,,, if they get that brand a rolling , I think it’ll be a very sought after boat. It was very impressive in person.

I think it's going to become a collectors item and not in a good way.
It's such a tough market to enter no matter who is slapping them together.
Just my .02.

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. That might have been Kurt. One of the only guys I know around here running a Falcon. But i don't know everyone obviously.
I can backlash toilet paper.

Same as caymas. Boatworld dropped Triton ranger to be a skeeter caymas dealer. They aren't going anywhere anytime soon Cliff has 2020 Triton's and Rangers on his website. I think he was the first Ranger Dealer to start selling Skeeters. The rest followed him.

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. All I’m sayin is that Vexus has been making their current lineup MUCH longer than the FXR has been out, and I have seen 20-1 FXRs over Vexus. For a reason too....Skeeter builds a good looking, capable boat. Vexus is just too “ricer” looking for a good ol boy to spend his money on one. Flop as it gets.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

Boatworld dropped Triton ranger to be a skeeter caymas dealer. You for sure on that? Texas Boat World is no longer an Ranger or Triton dealer, no affiliation with WRM in any way as of last Thursday. First hand knowledge of what and why, no hearsay and he made it publicly known in his personal Facebook page.

I have seen several tin Vexus boats, only seen maybe 4 glass boats, I think they need to make some wholesale changes to the look of the glass rigs, I do believe the quality is there.
