Hi there, and congrats on your Bad Boy buy! My name is Christian, I raced the boats along with Wil and Larry & Tony and have logged many many many hrs in the boat, very strong glass lay up. That boat is the plug to make the mold and was born as a tempest purchased from Bill Gazell. The boat turns great once you get used to it, positive trim will help. The rougher the better. With a 900hp Pat Musi motor, we had the boat running mid 90s. with around 680 hp Bandit racing engine we where able to see a solid 83-4 in 1' chop with no funny business i.e. chine walk etc. If you have any questions feel free to reach out, a orange boat was sold to New York, not many were made, and thats really too bad as they where built very well, and handle great once you get to know the boat. Tony built them as a blank canvas for dealers or riggers to run wild with, just never pushed them hard enough…

No problem, they look sweet. You polished the right up. Going to make a huge difference, and they still sound great!

Will do thanks for the interest. Are u still running the 24 Baja, I had a1988 for 20 years, sold it to a friend and he still has it. Looks great for an almost 30 year old boat.
