I see Caymas is coming out with a deep v series of boats. In Tune Marine has a video with the new DV22. Looks pretty sweet

Are you talking about the Vexus DV22. If so they have been out for a handful of years now.

RipjiggenPosts: 11824December 23, 2021 at 10:28 am #2083828I know someone who recently purchased a Caymas bass boat. Nice looking boats but boy are they $$$$. I know lots of boat brands that are up there but they are way UP there !!!! I can’t find a price listed for this new model but my guess is it will be close to 100,000 with a good electronics setup. Its crazy to think that some people these days are probably paying more than 2X more money for a boat than their parents paid for their first home. I guess its just money. Can’t take it with you. I have never seen a Brinks truck pull up to a funeral home
December 23, 2021 at 10:35 am #2083832Just watched the Video. WOW. a less than a 22 Ft boat rated for a 400 HP motor. By the way. If anyone is looking for a great boat salesman to work with. Aaron Teal is great to work with. He really knows the ins and outs of all the boats that they sell.

Yep, my parents paid $5,100.00 for their home back in 51.
December 23, 2021 at 10:41 am #2083837Dad bought a 3 bedroom rambler new in 1968 for $16,000 but it didn’t have a garage or paved driveway in fact the basement wasn’t finished off either.
Times have changed.

I can almost guarantee it’s over 100k.
Looks like a rebadged Triton with a few upgrades to me.January 24, 2022 at 9:03 am #2092771I saw the DV22 at the boat show. Its the Triton hull on a redesigned top cap.
While it looked cool, for the $128K price tag they had on it, I’d be buying the V238 Warrior over that thing.
One thing I did like about the Caymas is you can custom order the back storage. If you like the U compartments you could get that, or if you only wanted one you could do that as well and tell them which side you wanted it on.
I just think for $128k you have much better options. The WX2200 is a way better option unless you’re looking for all out speed. Dealer told me around 70 depending on load with the 400. But I have lost my drive for speed. When speed is a thing, rough water handling suffers. When rough water is the all out name then speed suffers. I like the happy median.
