If you know Craig you know that is pretty cool.
Craig actually owned Hawk Marine for many years around the time he owned Cig....Those are his motors in the 36. Considering the 36 Baja was reportidly splashed from a 36 Cigarette Mistress mold...Kind've a small world eh?

I thought the 36 was made with molds that Baja bought from Cig?

Cig built the original mold.

Cig did not really do anything with it from what I have learned.

Cig sold the mold to Force 10

Force 10 had the mold stored outdoors when they had a plant fire and this mold was about the only thing that survived.

Baja bought the mold and made some changes which included the stupid reverse chine on the outer edge of the hull and called it the "36 Outlaw".

There were 221 built from 997 to 2006 and the rest is history.

They only built 221 36 OL? Seems like a low number.

Almost 25 a year average (2 per month).

Not bad at all for a 36 footer!

I guess when you break it down it's not. At first glance it just seemed low. I wonder how many 25 OL's were produced?

You need to go back and read this thread.

TeamBaja posted all that data and that is where I copied the 221 for the 36 Outlaw from. I'm not sure what page it was on but somewhere near the middle.
