Could we see Baja by ????
Could Baja be built in ???? in the future
Who could have seen this enonomy coming and the close of Baja as we knew it.
Anything is possible. I wish Fountain the best of luck but who knows what the future brings.

Dock, read Brians post below yours. I have heard that Fountain may have built its last Baja for several different reasons. I cant tell you this is a fact, but I have heard it from 3 completely different sources. Should be an interesting year. Maybe the Miami boat show will have some answers?

Obviously we would all love to see Baja come home to Bucyrus. I dont see that happening even "if" someone happened to buy the name. There are probably much better places closer to the water than the old Baja factory.
In a fantasy world, I would like to see someone with a passion for boats and boat building similar to the brothers at Sunsation, NOT some corporate monster. One thing that always bothered me about Baja was the fact that we had a President that flew in for a couple hours every few months (Dave Olsen doesnt count, he came in way too late). Then, the Vice President of the company was a sailboater (and a jackass as you probably already know by now) who couldnt give 2 sh*ts about building performance boats.
