Default The Official Baja 2012 Lineup

Copied from another forum.......

23 Outlaw, 26 Outlaw, 247 Islander, 277 Islander


There will be very few options as most options were made standard for 2012. They come with a choice of these hullside colors: Habanaro Orange, Thunder Blue, Fly Yellow, Dragon Red, Pirate Black, Satin White, Dark Platinum.


The 247 and 23 Outlaw will be the same prices as will the 26 Outlaw and 277 Islander, that way we only have 2 prices and the customer decides which works for him. Simple for the 1st year.

I started working for Baja in 1984 in Ohio, and I think Chris Craft, and Wellcraft owned the performance boat market share at that time, but Baja soon took over. We sure enjoyed a long run at the top, and even in 2008 we still had a 40% market share for performance boats.

Keep posting what you want to see in the new Baja's, and hopefully they are reading.....

I don't think any of the performance boat companies are doing well right now. I give the guys in charge at Liberty/Baja credit for trying to bring it back to the market in probably the worst scenario possible.

Nothing bigger than a 26 footer? What is the thinking behind that?

I never thought the 23 Outlaw was a very good seller. Seems like it wasn't much less than the 25 Outlaw.

Twins aren't selling. Fountain and Donzi both build twins in the 30-35' range.

Exactly right...You go to buy a boat - if you want a single motor you get a Baja, if you want twins you choose from a Donzi or a Fountain. Simple marketing for a simple time. If done properly (and Craig Barrie explained to me a little bit of the theory behind it all) this could be a great way to keep Baja alive. Back to the basics...Entry level single motor boats that are well built and fiscally achievable to larger masses. Sounds like a decent strategy to me.
