    Looks nice, hull looks a lot like a Vexus IMO.

    Nice that they use 0.125 aluminum for the whole boat and not just the transom.

    Under powered max horse power. Similar transom to a War Eagle Boat, maybe that's the reasoning for the low horse power rating as they rate their boats the same. Exposed weld keel of boat.

    Yep - looks like Vexus. Underpowered as stated before. Wish there were more tin options with 225hp/250hp capability.

    One of the main guys that helped design the Vexus aluminum hulls has been a part of the design of these rigs as well.

    Some of the Vexus crew moved down to work for Avid. Coincidence on the similarities of look, maybe? Maybe not.

    Its a crowded and competitive field they are entering. Looks like Yamaha is their only engines at this time. Will limit their dealer network. I am sure Mercury will be available shortly.
