    What’s the latest on the glass boats?

    Timeline for the VX20 in dealer showrooms? Steve, do you have any new manufacturing photos to share with us?

    Just saw on Rock Outdoors page(Dealer in NC) that they just received the 1st VX20 on the east coast. I don't think it is for sale though, sounds like a demo boat for the dealership, so dealer owned. But they are starting to arrive at some dealerships

    They are shipping out the door as we speak (or text, or message or whatever you call this , we have pile of pre-sold orders that are going to get their boats first, so those are the ones we are concentrating on right now.

    For more than 50 years, we’ve had the privilege of working alongside Forrest Wood to build countless dreams for anglers all over the country, and world. With such a long-standing heritage and commitment to craftsmanship, we’re thrilled to see so many old and new friends joining the Revolution. One of those longtime enthusiasts is Charlie Hoover. From tournament fishing to industry advocate, Charlie’s always been part of our family, and so we were honored to build his new, custom rig – a high performance VX20. Our brand name may be young but, we’re pleased to say that, since 1968, we’ve built dozens of boats for Charlie, each one right here in our hometown of Flippin, Arkansas.

    Love that white VX20 with the burgundy consoles! I remember Keith Daffron at the Bassmaster Classic saying they planned on having the very first batch of fiberglass boats available by August. Looks like they are right on schedule. Some longtime friends right there. Forrest and his family are good folks. Remember talking with him at the 1986 Classic in Chattanooga and getting a picture with him and Chuck Yeager.

    Reynolds Garage and Marine will be getting their first sold fiberglass boat this week. I did however have the opportunity to drive the prototype VX21 this weekend up at Champlain. Very impressively smooth ride.

    I am in one of the pictures when Gayle (my boss) picked his up last Tuesday. It was #3 out the door, and he absolutely loves it. He has had it out 4 times and says it impresses him more and more each time! I have only been it long enough to shoot our Tackle Tip Tuesday video this week, but the boat is big and feels great to stand in.

    He says it handles and fishes AMAZING! I can't wait til it cools off just a little more and start spending a bunch of time fishing out of it!

    In fact it is sitting out front at work this morning as we are expecting visitors that want to look at it today! It has so many cool features.

    I think the paint on them will take time for some to adjust too, but overall I love the new Fiberglass Vexus boats.

    Saw on the new VX21 video Ryan did that it is one of the marketing points "lighter, stronger, faster smoother". Would also be curious of the specs.

    Saw you guys by the old railroad bridge. Man, that was a bad ass looking boat! That’s the nicest looking bass boat I’ve ever seen.
