Baja 36 Outlaw
Yes it was originally the 342 which still remains a very popular hull.

I sure wish they had the old 36 Outlaw molds. I heard they were destroyed.

Baja 342
Its a 342 - I have one... They are a great looking boat with the windscreen (not the windshield) about a 72 MPH boat with 496 MAG HO's and 80 with 500 HP. Can run in BIG seas with extention boxes and 500HP 75+ all day long.

Skeptics can say what they want but this is a solid running boat with great ammenities. They have a very modern style that should be around for awhile. It is a very good size boat and a great deal at the price they advertised!

No stress cracks in mine and I pound it in 5 footers! Never brake anything but drives.

???????????????????

One of these days you will actually state a true fact. My 36 has over 400 hours and you will not find a stress crack. I know many others just like mine solid and trouble free. I know some Baja's that have had major failures and I know of some really high $$$$ BIG Name brands with problems. They are resin and fiberglass and if you think any manufacturer has never had a stress crack you are misinformed.

Amazing how some hide behind a computer screen and feel the need to bash others choices on what to purchase and own. Does that make you feel like a big man Mr. Purple of BIG RED what ever name you are using today?

And no I don not take your comments as a DEBATE.

As for the construction of the 350ZT by Checkmate I am confident that it will be very high quality.

Interesting comment

There have been a lot built for sure. If every boat builder were honest they would tell you that they would have loved to have generated the volume and sales dollars that Baja enjoyed over the years. It was no small feat to but together a group of close to 300 people and the largest dealer network in the world for performance boats.

It's funny how Baja built more than most all the other companies combined per year yet if you go to the classifieds their are more Fountains and Cigarettes for sale than Baja's.

Go Figure

I am proud to be in the elite club of true Baja owners and from your comment I guess there are a lot of us!
