Any update on third party for keel protector it's almost been a month can someone @ TEAM VEXUS get on this asap we want to keep this nice boat nice thanks for you help
Any update on the aluminum specific keel protector?
Maybe Line X's Keel x. Its as much as a hambys but much bettter. Since ford beds are aluminum I bet a Keel X will fit the ticket.
I just had one put on my Triton and Its much better than any other of the stick on ones that iv had.
Any more dealers coming on line in Florida ?
Here is in my area it was a little over $600.00 for about 7.5'. The good thing about the Keel X is that its a custom application over the strakes where the Hambys and the other stick on brands have to be molded over them. That was the weak point on my other boat when a stick on brand failed. I have not lost any speed due to the Keel X
The hambys is over $500 and you have to leave the boat for cure time.
The Keel X was put on while I waited by a line X dealer who has the ability to lift the boat in the air. The Keel X looks great too.

Have Vexus AVX1980 going through the build process as we speak; since one of my nearby lakes has a ramp but no dock and either rough or rocky shoreline (Lake Brewer near Springfield, AR), I am interested in finding a way to eliminate or minimize my contact with the bottom as much as possible; don't want to scratch up my paint job. I have owned both a Ranger RT178C and RT188 rigs before and both had unpainted bottoms of the their hulls. I saw earlier comments from SCLARK not recommending keel protection but that post was dated back in November of 2018. Wondering if SCLARK or anyone has seen any updates on what keel protection will work and if that is even an option to have applied there in the factory or worst case have my dealer in Hot Springs install themselves. I have seen references by some of the keel protector companies that indicate they have done some Vexus boats but would rather hear from someone at Vexus themselves or other Vexus owners on this Bulletin Board that have gone ahead and done this themselves...don't want to mess up a great paint finish unless the application is done correctly.
