I called the Chaparral dealer near me to see if they would let me go and take some pictures, and maybe a video of any they have in stock. So, I thought it would be a great idea to get a thread going on the locations, and inventory. Maybe even some reviews of the dealers that carry the VRX line. Not all dealers carry them in stock.

Here is my first add to the list:

Jacksonville Boat Sales
http://www.jaxboatsales.com/
14603 BEACH BLVD. JACKSONVILLE BEACH, FL 32250
904.330.0433

Availability: They are looking to bring some into inventory very soon. They will be focusing on the 243VRX, but will bring in more models if they see interest. The dealer is very knowledgable, and the contact there is Mike Ramsey. He knows the VRX line well.
 
The local dealer in Pasco, WA has a couple in stock. They currently have a Vortex VRX 203 and a VR 203. The 203 has judt about every option available on it. They are waiting on a couple 223s to arrive.

The dealer is called Northwest Marine and Sport.

In middle Tennessee, Modern Marine has (I believe) a 223 VRX in stock (as of around 2-1-15). It's one of the ones they had at the boat show back in January. The others are gone I think. Their website is http://www.modernmarineonline.com/. I believe they took quite a few orders at that show (we saw two friends looking to buy).
