So why dont a BUNCH of us get together, pool our money, credit lines and knowledge to become an employee/enthusiest owned company.

Seems to me this happened a number of years ago with a different Brunswick owned subsideriery, called Harley Davidson.

Seems to have worked out for them. I personally have no problem using Mercury motors, I can sign a paper for a Corporation...

And we all certainly have the Baja passion to succeed, Just a thought, I'm Game!

Wouldn't it be cool if someone, na...........not yet.

I'm game!

I thought that was the another bowling Ball company AMF?

We can operate under - Baja by XT-Innovations LTD?

I need to post a photo of the 24 years worth of Baja pay-stubs that I have collected as proof of my passion...HELL I'm still game. DRINK!

XT

If you guys need engineering support, Ill throw my name into the ring...

Okay guy's we start Monday and need to hurry the Miami show is in 6 weeks. First thing we need is a good web site and legally remove any other site using the Baja name. This is the job I want then when I am successful I will retire with a large pension of coarse. I also have enough parts to build a few Baja's but it might be like the Johnny Cash Cadillac.

That's what I was thinking!

I'll throw my name in for test boat driver. I love abusing stuff with horsepower. especially if it's not mine.

If this is true and Fountain is done making Baja has someone stepped in and willing to continue the Baja boats? I was sorry to see Baja leave Ohio and the people that made them but I'm ok with fountain making them as long as they make the boat as great as they are or if possible even better. I think if Fountain is done with Baja and someone else is taking over that could be bad for Baja. Who would want to buy a new Baja knowing that in less then a year Baja was produced by two companies and now a possibility someone else. Who would be taking over on any warrenty work issues or get any new parts. I don't know if it was true or not but I thought when Fountain got Baja that Sea Ray was to take care of any issues but people had trouble dealing with them. I could be wrong but I am thinking I remember people complaining.

As for the two Baja's we have had I think they are great boats. The first one was a 1995 Baja 236 that we bought in 2000 and kept it for almost seven years and then July of 2007 we bought our 2005 Baja 275.

I hope the Baja line and name stay around for a long time and continue making a great boat.

I had that same thought Brian!!!!
I'm not a millionaire, but, I'd invest in that venture

OSO Members,

I spoke to Founatin this AM (Saturday Jan. 3rd 2009). The plant is alive and building both Founatins and Baja's on a Saturday. In fact, we just went over the details on a 278 with a HO for our dealer stock. Things are not great anywhere in the marine industry, but the strong are pushing through!

I have said it before and I will say it again. I am completly impressed with everyone at the Fountain plant and the way they have embraced the Baja name, its owners and dealers.

It was sad to see the OH plant and its employees go away, but sometimes change is for the best!

Lets hope for a strong 2009!!!
