Default 30 Outlaw Questions

Hey Gang, I aksed this question on another site and all I got was liner boat construction bashing. I have a 2008 26 Outlaw (liner boat) that has seen some pretty rough rides between the Atlantic Ocean and Chesapeake Bay and has yet to show any signs of spider cracks at all. I am thinking about moving up to one of the few remaining 2008 30 Outlaws that are still out there (great deals to be had). Anyway I'd like to hear some honest, educated opinions as to why or why not I should consider the 30 Outlaw. What I should look out for, be concerned about, etc. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

Well bigger is the obvious choice. I have only heard of a hand full of liner boats that have had problems. Most of those are long gone now in a trash pile. I would not even think twice about the liner boats, all good in my book. A link to a nice priced on is below.

I have a few fine spider cracks in my 2004 but no hull/liner seperation issues, etc. The boat has 450+ hours on it and hasn't exactly been babied.

It seems to be more of the 04's/05's that had the issues...The 08 will be a FAJA and have stringers...There shouldn't be any issues with that boat other than it was built at the company formally know as Fountain.

You might try Premier Boats in Lincoln Nebraska. They have a nice 08 30 they are trying to unload. Ask for Kevin.

I stand corrected...Do your research. Hawkeye Boat Sales would be another good source.
