    Cats outta the bag. Interesting. Read dealers info. They take a jab at big box stores.

    Awful name, IMHO. I wonder if they focus group tested that name. I mean, look at the names that exist (or existed). I'd think it will be hard to market.

    I actually looked it up. Vexus comes from the Latin word "vexare" which means "to attack, harass, trouble". Could've just called them the Congressmen and it would have been the same meaning, but less cryptic.

    Vex means to anger, irritate someone. Think it is statement to JM. Vex us and see what happens.

    Maybe it is an acronym that incorporates the vacuum infusion process used in boat building?

    I was planning to pay cash for one of those new boats, but with a name like Vexus, I think I'll pass

    I figured it was stating that they will irritate the JM brands, not that JM irritated them. They will try to be the thorn in his side
