Baja Cat?
 
http://louisville.craigslist.org/boa/2045388411.html

Has anyone seen this boat before?

X-Driver 11-06-2010 08:32 PM

I'm no expert but that is not the origional 80s era Baja catamaran. Maybe TeamBaja or XT can chime in.....

FASTTIMES 11-06-2010 08:33 PM

I believe Baja and Caiman may have collaborated on the CAT- not sure.. Maybe one of the former employees will chim in. Cool looking boats. Here is a Caiman that was forsale at the first of the year.

I cant remember the details, but this boat seems to pop up on my screen every few years. Im thinking Ocean Express was involved with this project, Im sure Dave will chime in.

I do like the amazing graphics part in the ad. They are amazingly horrible.

JasonSmith 11-07-2010 08:30 AM

It looks similar to a Mares cat.

Chit that add is hillarious. Homologated Brovo drives and a step down hull considered the finest for areo dynamic fabrication for speed and handling and Innovated running lights . Who could ask for anything more ?:)

A few years back Paul Everett still had the molds and would be happy to build you one laid up by Checkmate

Gladhe8er 11-07-2010 09:14 AM

Nice try on that price!

"A" for effort. Price is equally as funny! :drink:

I'll forgive a couple of typos, but if you are putting an ad together for something like this you should at least check your spelling so you dont look like a moron.

Yep, Paul Everett ran around Lake Erie in the other one that was a single engine version often. The twin engine one was built for one of the Baja Dealer Meetings, but the major dealers that would offer the model said it needed to break 100 mph with that power, and the price was too high. Insurance was another issue at the time. The Baja dealers killed the project, in a nutshell.

Didn't Mares also do a cat with Sonic a while back?

Was Ocean Express involved in this or what that something else. I remember a thread about that somewhere.

Ocean Express built the race cats in the 80's like "Bandit" and a couple 33's and one 39' pleasure cat.

I ran acrossed this on craigslist http://louisville.craigslist.org/boa/3321551325.html
then seen this thread. this don't look like one of the Ocean Express Baja Hulls

cp5899 11-09-2012 02:02 AM

I think it's a good looking boat, but for that money you could buy a eliminator or spectre.
