I have had three outlaws, a 24 with a 540 bulldog (handfull) a 29 with 7.4 mags and now a 36.
Never had any problems or issues with quality. However, be prepared for the "haters" out there that do not know what they are talking about. I get the guys talking down about Baja all the time. There are al,ot out there in all years, shapes and sizes.
Keep in mind Baja makes inexpensive small crafts, but also makes outlaws and large craft. But they all have the same name.
The looks of my 36 seems to draw comparisons to Cigs, Fountians, and other off shore racers. And I have been told mine is an "entry level" boat. Burns my ass and pisses me off. I did not buy it to be compared to a 700K cig. I bought it because I like the lines, resale, quality, creature comforts.

I don't know that the 302s ever had any stringer issues. It was pretty much isolated to the 29 Outlaw and only in limited cases.
If you want a clean 302 you need to contact Irishtornado here on OSO and take a look at his. I have seen this boat in person and it is a very nice ride. Lots of extras.
His is the 2003 brochure boat. http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...d.php?t=165803

Be honest with what your goals are for the boat. With only MPI motors, you best speeds are going to be very low 60's and the MPI motors will not handle much in the way of power upgrades since the internals are not that great. I would suggest finding a boat with at least 454mag motors.

Not trying to sway your decision, but my boat is a clean 302 always stored indoors and is 74 on GPS boat all day long. Boat cruises at 65 around 4000 rpms and doesn't miss a beat. Only reason I'm even pondering selling it as work direction has changed and I have no time to use it. I've had it out once this year for about 10hrs the rest of the time its sat under cover in my polebarn. I'll entertain reasonable offers, but refuse to give it away. If your interested email me and I'll send you somemore pics as well as specifics on the boat.
