"beauty in in the eye of the beholder" and I'm betting the people that don't like the vexus looks are the same ones who put on big tires and jack a pick up truck up to where it looks like a mud buggy.... Not at all. ....But I bet a Vexus would look at home behind an Infinity QX80 or a Lexus LX570 with the chrome package. Lol.

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. Texas boat world dropped Triton and Ranger?! Yep, dropped them like a used rubber

I was pulling my boat out one night on Palestine and a guy had a tin Vexus and let me get all in it...I thought it was a great layout...I was pretty impressed
after the Triple T couple weekends ago, there was another Vexus gassing up at the pump next to me coming back from Rayburn...I don't know what model it was but it was butt ugly...totally different boat

If it weren't for the Pickle Fork, the hand rails, and the fake "air vents" on the side of the boat it would look a lot better! Yes sir. Those fake chrome USELESS air vents are the dumbest thing ever stuck on a boat. The pickle fork is there to make the forward most part of the deck wider....ugly, but useful. The hand rails are ugly, but useful. The fake chrome [censored] is just ugly. Maybe if you ordered one, you could convince them to delete that part.

I could not care less if Vexus survives in the boat market or not. For all the "Skeeter is best boys", Skeeter produced the absolute ugliest bass boat ever made. The Skeeter SK2000

I got a chance to drive a VX21 w/ 250 , 4 stroke, Merc today on Sam Rayburn. Sam still some chop & roll to her when the owner throw me the keys.( Remote start FOB ) I have a 08 Skeeter ZX200 so it was a complete different driving boat. It would take more seat time but I thought it did good in the 2' ers that were rolling down the lake. Never got a chance to open it up but owner said it's not a speed demon. Fit & finish looked perfect. It's a deep sided bassboat with a Rounded V hull like a Champion, so while idling out, there was a lean to my side. Hole shot was good but might improve with a 300. One thing I am used to a Hot Foot. This one didn't have one, so , like I said more seat time needed to relearn to drive without one. Would I be interested in having one NO. I don't think it'd fit my fishing still. Nice boat but as others said, it does have a different look to it.

There are a handful of the aluminum rigs running around in Arkansas, few of the bass rigs. Not the smash it was rumored to be but I don't think they're flops just yet.

Haven't seen a Vexus on LOZ other than the new fiberglass demo they brought up last year for show and tell. Looked it over real close and decided it was too ugly for a test ride. If I'm gonna spend 90K on a new rig, I wanna see sparkle!!

Whomever designed or approved the Fiberglass Design on the Vexus should be fired and never work in the boat industry again.
This reminds me when Ford introduced the Edsel, it was and ugly flop as well.
