Mostly they got fixed; either at Baja before they closed or by Sea Ray. I think 1 or 2 may have been fixed in Bucyrus after Baja left but the guys there would know for sure.

My understanding....and I'm not an expert on all this so take it for what it's worth.....is that there were problems with early model 30 Outlaws, lots of 23 Outlaws, most of the 405's, and a couple of 20's, 26's and 35's. Prior to the changeover to liner/grid construction there were a few boats that had delamination issues. There was also a time when transoms and stringers were left to rot, but that issue seemed to be mostly solved by the early to mid 90's. The vast majority are structurally sound boats, but there were some stinkers made in OH from time to time.

Baja isn't the only mfgr to have these types of problems, although with the 23 Outlaw in particular there were a lot of "bad" ones built; would agree with those that say that played a big role in Baja's demise. You take your chances anytime you buy a boat so a competent surveyor is always a good defense. I wouldn't write off a 30 Outlaw if that's what a guy wanted, but some homework up front is definitely prudent. That's true for just about any boat though.

I agree that the 33 outlaw is a boat to look at. The 30 is still a nice boat and I think any boat you buy could have a problem, and any brand. But there are more people without problems then there is with. Negative spreads easy and faster then positive. I love Baja boats. You get alot for your money. I have owned 3 and never had a problem running hard on lake michigan. You get what you pay for to sometimes. If you want a better hull spend a million, but it still might not be perfect! Or just enjoy a baja, put lots of fuel in it and have fun!
