Thanks

Magnum, 32 Caliber, and 32 Outlaw were the same
thing.

I think the other boat you're talking about was called
the Sidewinder ??


Did you ever hear of a "renegade" ?

I believe that is correct. Every time I see Sidewinder post on here I think of that boat.

I was going to ask the same question.. What year was the 30' Renegade produced and does anyone have any pics of this boat?

Dock,

I agree with JaayTeee, its probably the Sidewinder your thinking of. Here is a quick pick I stole from a classified somewhere.

As far as the Magnum and Renegade go, chances are you've seen a few of these out and about. I'll get some pics when I have more time.

The Renegade was a 89' -280 Sport, 90' -300 ES, model based on the same hull as the 280 Force that came out in late 1994. It did not make it into the regular brochure that year, but I have some single brochures that show just that one model. It was the same deck as the 280 Sport with a low profile white plex. windscreen, and a center bow rail that was interupted by the center hatch. It was not as nice as the Magnum/32 Caliber/32 Outlaw model in most peoples opinions.

Doc,

Back in the old days we started getting phone calls from companies about Baja using names that were registered like:

"Force" - US Marine Outboards
"Magnum" - Magnum Powerboats
"Sidewinder" - Sidewinder Boats
"Renegade" - Jeep never even noticed, there where so few!

The "GUN" names were fine like: 38 Special, 32 Caliber, 22 Caliber, & Shooter.......The names Hammer, & H2x were also fine to use.

PS. Berry C. (Sidewinder Boats on OSO) the guy you met at Checkmate Marine - actually bought the "Sidewinder" boat company name, but is not producing any number of boats at this time. He can better explain his company sometime.

Yeah that's it Greg. I thought that boat was major cool the first time I saw it.

Now that's pretty funny. Good thing you did not use any names that the guy here in North Carolina used!

That is very interesting. I got to meet Berry the last trip up but I had no idea it was more than just a screen name.

You are right!!! That really is a lot of boat for the money. Looks like it has been pretty well taken care of from what we can see. Too bad it looks like a salt water boat.
