    I’m with you 110%.

    However, I’ll never spend that kind of money on a bass boat so

    CARPET SUCKS! I'm also glad to see a new high dollar bass boat come with something other than carpet. What really sold me on Seadek and similar products is how fast it dried after spearing a wave and completely soaking the inside of the boat. That said, Scott Rook was out there that day too in his big Vexus and doubt he had any issues in that big ass boat, lol.

    Treat others like you want to be treated when on the water EVEN WHEN IN A TOURNAMENT! No fish is worth having a confrontation because you cut someone off or came in on top of someone.

    I like it. Same hull and different top cap? Would love to know more, especially if it is any faster than the original models.

    Sharp rig. Have liked Vexus looks since it came out. I’d probably order without the rails.

    Solely based on the pics here, I’d say it’s a different hull (not as deep) with the same/similar top cap.

    Pretty neat but I'm sure expensive to replace/ fix when issues arise like co-angler smacking it with a jig! Will need a screen protector for it I'm guessing.

    Does it have issues with glare? Can brightness be controlled during night time use?

    That looks awful! Watching the video you can see the screen rotation is much slower than the wheel rotation. If you need to use the touch screen while turning you will most likely miss the button you were trying to press. Just because it looks cool doesn't mean it is a good idea.

    Don't know enough about it yet to make that kind of decision. Maybe the rotation speed can be adjusted/ calibrated to your liking, who knows?

    is it just me or does that screen in the wheel look like a really ugly dog dish hubcap? Looks dorky to me.

    I love to see innovation. Obviously this has been used in the wake board industry so you know it works.
    in my mind a fisherman would have the display set to show what he wants as opposed to making changes on the fly.

    As for hitting it with a jig, yeah I guess that “could happen” but that location would be a 1 in a million shot

    Well they saying goes if it can happen it eventually will happen. Seen guys get their 10-12" screens at the console damaged before the screen protectors came about. Or you could just scratch it up with anything metal on your person while operating the boat.

    One more unnecessary thing that will break. There’s Enough trouble keeping keypads working.

    There's something to be said about solid state gauges and switches. Old tech but works great and when they do fail they're usually fairly cheap and easy to replace.

    I would be telling a big old fat whooper of a lie if I said it was not freaking gorgeous to me and I would be telling an even bigger whooper if I said I could afford it.
