What are you expecting, because it will not be fast. Good wave crusher at about 60 MPH, that is a heavy boat.
Just thought about that combo a little more, probably more like 55 MPH. Very underpowered for the weight and size.

They are NOT wave crushers. Neighbor on the dock bought a leftover 08 from Kelly's Port last year. Got the crap beat out of him in rough water. He had 60 hours on it and sold it for $90,000.

Deadrise the issue?

I bet if you had to ask a Baja employee which boat caused Baja to be sold off they would pick this one. Lot's of warranty issues.

Doubt it, I'm thinking it's 24 degree. I just think it's a boat to stay away from.

I briefly thought about a 335 a while ago. They were almost giving the leftovers away. I haven't heard anything good about them. I was worried about parts and support down the road. Just aren't that many out there.

How big of power would you put in a 405? :eek:

I have a buddy with one with 525 EFI's in it, runs around 70. I think over all he's been happy with it.

This comes from a guy running triple 500's in a 47? :party-smiley-004:

Although that is a nice setup with 525's I wouldn't have wanted to see that pricetag!

The same guy that has this 405 has a 47 with triple 700 SCi's :evilb:
