I don't know about that site. Kieth's has been for sale on there for 4+ years and as far as I know it's not even for sale.

The other two at $85K +...... I'll beat the price of the 2000 on there. :grinser010:

A lot of people want a 342. Guess that's why checkmate bought the mold.

Bought ?..... I was told it was a "gift";)

I think the most money spent on old tooling was with the Crawford County Land Fill. :party-smiley-004:

The checkmate version is probably a little faster - power for power.

Theres is much simpler with less options and a few things they just didnt do at all - like the swim ladder cover... The upholstery is a lot simpler too.

I wonder if they've sold the only one they built??

The swim ladder door mold was discarded a long time ago, but we do have Tim's 342 here and can make another mold easy enough....

Don't remember if the Checkmate 350 ZT tested that much faster than old Baja 342's, but the engines weigh more now with closed cooling, and catalytic converters on them.

Call Dean Reynolds at Checkmate Marine for his honest opinion. He is the person that tested the Checkmate version, AND he would be the same person launching the 342 in the Boating ad that Dock posted from 99'.
