I was going to do the same thing but after talking to them I decided it was too much to swap them in and out. I went with the coin box since it can be used as a seat if needed. You must remove the...

My boat sits outside in my driveway but it always has the cover on it when I’m not using it. Maybe what your noticing is condensation that builds up, not sure. It’s has rained here a lot this winter...
Mine has not been doing this.
Congrats!!!
I saw a FB post yesterday that said a multi-species boat would be on display at the BM classic along side the FG models. Is this true?
thank you
For us dummies, how is this measured? I am wondering if my manual plate is too low. Picture would help. Thanks in advance.
I agree^^^^^. I have fished in mine since Sept and sometimes with 2 big guys, (250/260) with both guys on front deck at same time and basically no side to side rocking. Such a small amount that you...
I was going to go with the 9” but chose the 10” helix instead. The 10” is the same size box, just has more screen. I have mine on a bracket that is mounted on the factory plate. It works excellent...
No I have not fished 3 people yet. I think fishing 3 would not be a problem if everyone knows what they are doing. What I mean by that is casting angles do no one gets hooked. I have fished 2 big...
Well, I have had my AVX 1980 since Late Sept and I must say this boat is still very impressive. The boat is so stable and maneuverable, it jumps up on plane quickly and being Alum it sips the gas. I...
Anybody from south Texas going to chime in? I would like to hear what’s it’s like to live near,Amistad, Falcon or Travis lakes.
I agree
I totally agree and I was torn between the two for awhile. So glad I went with VeXus. I would make same choice again.....all day everyday hands down.
spot on review. I have fished in my 1980 every weekend since the end of Sept. it’s awesome and your right about getting the back area wet if you let off the throttle quickly. But it’s easy to get...
this is pretty the exact sentiments of almost everyone that rides or fishes in one. The boat rides and fishes like a FG boat.
Its a trick step brand but it’s welded to the trailer. The aftermarket one is a bolt on.
My buddies that have fished in mine absolutely love it. They are all believers now. I was going to get an RT 198 but so glad I didn’t. A buddy that has fished in my 1980 has also fished in his...
I like how it tows much better with a tandem trailer. Once I retire and take some longer trips to some bigger water it will much nicer towing on longer runs. It’s was cheap insurance and peace of...
i had your same dilemma before my purchase. My lakes here are small and don’t really need the bigger boat with the 150 hp. But, I plan on keeping the boat and hopefully travel to bigger lakes once I...
Nice. Congrats. I guess it depends on how heavy the wind is blowing but overall, yes the 80 lb TM is good. You can always upgrade later.
Thanks. So it’s called an exhaust relief hole? It’s not below the water line when engine is trimmed in full down position and idling in gear. Although, its close enough to the water line to cause...
it appears to be in a similar location as your pictures. What is the hole for? Mine has what looks like a rubber grommet around it as well. I tried to post a picture but it won’t accept it due to the...
No,not out of the prop. Maybe it’s not the exhaust but it certainly sound like it. It’s about half way up the back of the motor, right below the release handle for the cowling. There is a hole about...
So I have the 6” manual jack plate with my new Mercury 150 ProXS. My buddy noticed that my exhaust was right at the waterline surface when my engine is trimmed in the full down position. He said the...
