Lake St. Clair Races


Yes "Team Dock Holiday" gets around!

Even though some sites claim to be in the KNOW:grinser010: you have to actually get out and GO.

Enjoy

Hey Doc....Do you remember the artist rendition of the 39 stepped Baja they were going to do? It had 4 seperate seats at the cockpit that were seperated in between with the deck as I recall. Niffty looking design.

What you said about the 39 skater being a handfull in the turns is what I've heard too. I'd like to see Baja build that boat but maybe tweak it slightly to run a bit better (of course that would be slower too) like lower the X, maybe not make it staggered.

Yes I do and it was really sharp. I believe it was in the full throttle magazine and if so I should have it to scan.

I think the staggered setup is a plus with the stepped hull. It is also a plus with the next boat I buy. If and when we do another performance boat it will not have side x sides for ease of maintenance.

Couldn't have said that any better.

I watched the plug being made its seemed like it was made with puddy or clay .then they sprayed it with jelcoat then layed up glass it was impressive.they could biuld that boat for me Ill drive like I stole it. My guess 103 with a cabin .and 700s my other GUESS will never know HA HA.

Market the stepped hull series as the all new Baja "Poker Run Series Boats".

I.E.: Islander / Performance / Outlaw / Poker Run Series

Keep all the ads the same for the true vee and have a different high performance promotion for the stepped.

Certify each dealer that wants to be a "High Performance" dealer and give a required attend Tres Martin Driving School course with each boat sold.

Just my opinion

My thoughts too,

Do something along the lines of what Donzi did
with their ZR line, but lets say a 35, 39, and 42

The liability exposure should be relatively low
just due to the fact that you're not going to sell
all that many.

But, it would give us something to look up
to for our next ride.


We saw the Honey Party 399 Skater at the LOTO
OSS races last September, it was the baddest V
hull there, it looked like it was on rails, granted
it was a shaft drive boat, it was very impressive,
the race was over on the first lap.

Well I'm sorry to announce that with the purchase of Baja by Fountain that the poker run tour has been cancelled from what I am being told.

I'm sure "Split Decision" will make someone a VERY nice boat as I understand that the 40 Outlaw will be no more under Fountain.

Baja should have taken the $500,000 for it at the Miami Boat Show! Sure hate to hear this news!

My thoughts exactly!

This is really a very sad day for me and I'm sure that does not compare with what some of the employees are dealing with.

So will your buddy start a new website called teamfountain/bajamarine.com and piss off all the Fountain owners too? :party-smiley-004::hitfan:
