Split Decision
Fire / Ice
Dock Holiday is here with the inside scoop.
No the boat has not been wet yet but they will be testing at Mercury X very soon. They have some VERY trick props for this boat and with it being 1500 lbs lighter then a stock 40 Outlaw plus the addition of a knotched transon and a pad bottom they are shooting for around 92 MPH. I have seen first hand a stock 40 OL loaded with generator and the works run 81 on GPS so I thing 10 more MPH is possible.
My hat is off to Dave Olson and the entire team at Baja for a job well done. The boat is without a doubt the BEST poker run boat they have built to date and the attention to detail is unreal. We cannot forget my good friend Calyton Tackett who took the final drawings and put this beautiful paint job on the fiberglass. I was very happy to learn that they used the likeness of yours truely on the side of the boat. You will have to decide which looks more like me "FIRE" or "ICE.
SPLIT DECISION was in my opinion the stand out boat at the show this year. thought the show was a little boring but Baja raised the bar again.
Baja received a $500K cash offer on this boat Friday at the show and elected to pass and keep the poker run tour on schedule. That is huge in my opinion and speaks volumes for the boat they have built for us all to enjoy this season.
I have been invited to take the controls in April and put this beauty through the paces and I look forward to reporting back to everyone on how well she does.
It was a real pleasure to again enjoy the Miami show with Blane, Jay and Barbara and especially nice to finally meet Dave Olson. He is a very nice fellow and I think we can expect great things from Baja under his leadership.
Here come the pictures.
