question.. 86 baja 320
I am not real Baja smart so I am posting a question, I found a pretty good deal on a 86 Baja 320 that is local to me, has 420's with trs, MINT interior, including cabin, overall very nice boat, clear peeled off the bow and it will need paint to look good, I found no delamination yet in the engine compartment, I knocked on what I could, if I get serious I will have him pull it and really go over it, seems very well kept, older guy who has had it for 14 yrs, 2 boat owner, comes with trailer, 15,000.00 is asking price.
I looked it over pretty well but does anyone have any suggestions as far as what these hulls are known for?
Boat is now in the water and turn key, ready to go, all fluids look good. 500 hrs.
Are these known to have rot? if so, where? I guess being a 86 anything is possible but the bilge actully looks real good so far.

Looks to me like a good deal on the boat! Put a little paint on it, and it will be good to go.
The 420s are a fairly mild motor and should be OK for a while, but I would have the compression, etc. checked anyway, just so you know.
IMO the TRS drives are good for that boat and power.
Is there a trailer in the deal??

I bought it today, boat runs great, I will do compression tests before winter, may go throgh the heads at least, one engine is 500 hrs other is 140 hrs.
I like the TRS since I know they hold up well, we had my friends 311 Formula running 80 GPS with no TRS fails.
Yes a trailer was included, 2 axle MYCO very nice shape.
Got it for 13,000 cash.
