What a shamefull waste if this is the case! A 342 with a pair of 525s/600s/700s would be such a cool boat...too bad...
In a word....BUMMER
Checkmate has the 342 mold and is building a beautiful product. Look at their website. They will build it any way you want it.

ZT350

It is shown on their website with the optional windscreen but the full wrap around walk thru windshield is standard equipment.

Baja, Checkmate, Beckmate or whatever you want to call it, that ZT 350 is one sweet looking boat. No chopper guns used either..

Baja discontinued the 302 before Fountain bought them. Not sure where the hull landed.

my baja was hand laid not a chopper gun, as far as I know when my buddy had a baja dealership he said non of the boats were chopper gunned sea rays are. so whats with the chopper gun remark? the newest bajas had a grid instead of regular stringers just before reg got the company but thats not consider chooper gun work. ol is using a grid set up instead of stringers now been to there shop many times this last yr. even say the new pics of the 28footer being designed.
