That's too bad to here. It is unfortunate when someone ends up with a lemon, but I will say they are not all this way.

In a little over 8 months our '08 has logged around 190 running hrs and has been all over SWFL and the Keys. Everything so far is great - the only issues we have had have been minor (i.e. bad gauge, power steering line drip).

Thats good to hear JSW, I agree it would be horrible to get stuck with a lemon but I also suspect that there are many more owners enjoying trouble free boating in the 30 OL than there were lemons.

Not true. The FAJA was not built until model year 2009.

That is correct - ours is definitely not a Faja.

My first "real" boat was a new '05 30 OL. The only problems I had was some nasty stress cracks at each side of the wind screen. The dealer "fixed" it multiple times, but they kept coming back. Other than that, no problems at all. And I beat the crap out of it (ask Busta). After close to 200 hours, I moved up to a 35 OL.
