Again, why hasn't this boat sold?!
I'm about to go out and buy this thing. Seems like a lot of boat for the money and in what appears to be good condition. Is it the prospect of the other motor droppin? I can't see anything negative about this boat. Ultra optioned out, good paint, great motor package. WTF?

I noticed it too. Good graphics, etc. only thought was that the motors had not had the top ends done yet. Figured that why it had 1 new engine. I found a 302 baja close to me when I was looking with hp500s and they had replaced 1 engine...... but nothing done to the other and over 300 hours and no top ends.... especially given that 1 popped already.

It's a nice boat and priced right. Even if you had to rebuild that motor.

I couldn't imagine you in a Baja unless it was the 90 mph paint scheme as shown on their web site... ;)

Just an option ;) |
I think because one motor needs the top end done, and it spent part of its life in salt water

I've met Mick, the owner a couple times. He's pretty much checked out of boating and is now into high speed runs & drag racing in his 5th Gen Camaro that has been 800-1100HP over it's last couple iterations. The guy who put his Camaro together also did my Corvette. http://www.lsxmag.com/features/car-f...011-camaro-ss/
He told me he bought the boat from Connecticut; and brought it down to VA. Where he lives/boats on the Potomac it's barely brackish; and he did a lot of boating on Lake Anna too. I've never seen the boat, but I do know he wants to get rid of it. |

[ATTACH=CONFIG]565249[/ATTACH] ONLY downside that i have found.... over 50-55, the bench passengers are blown away b/c they are so far back from the windshield. But I cruise in that range, so its not a real issue. |

If you pull the trigger, you wont be disappointed, I had one for a few years and loved it, 502 mag mpi's and single bolster seating, the ride of the 33OL is outstanding and the lines ( IMO ) are the best of the OL line,

LOL, I owned a 24 Baja Outlaw and LOVED it! I couldn't afford a Cigarette at the time so I bought a Baja. I was 21 yrs old. It was a great boat! I love the lines of the 33, I like the room for 7 in the "bus" seating and that cabin has a real head, a fridge, room for a microwave, sink, seating with a table and a bed - perfect for the family. Lighter and a bit smaller than a Café or a Gun and less money for a newer boat with newer power.

A 24' Outlaw at 21 had to have been a riot! When I lived back by Erie I used to see alot of them out there. I always felt they were the ultimate best bang for the buck! 24 deg deadrise, high sides, nice cuddy to flop in, and a decent speed made them a great smaller boat on Erie. I think that boat brought more people to larger high performance boating than any other boat out there. As for the bigger outlaw, I will never forget seeing one for the first time. It must have been one of XT buddies that hauled one up from bucyrus to drop in the water. It was all white with no name plates on it anywhere. It was the first time I have ever seen the hull.. Not knowing what it was made it super exciting!! Tried and tried connecting dots on it. It looked like an updated South Florida boat (Cig, Pantera, etc...) It wansnt until a month or two later when Powerboat Mag came out with an article on a new design from Baja. Saw the pics and realized what I saw.... That boat had super sharp lines especially in comparison to the shamu bubble boats they had in production. Likewise it is also a great bang for the buck... I always say there is no perfect boat! There is only a perfect boat for a specific application. The outlaw did a great job at rounding alot of things out and making various types of boating accessible in one rig....... As for the day I see pics of you in your new baja, I will be petitioning LS Jr. to revoke your cig memebership card...... LOL... :)
LOL, I love Cigs, and a Café is also on the list. So is a Baja 340 CC and a Concept 36 CC and a Café open (if I could find one for the right price). I'm really not picky. I need a little smaller boat than a gun, don't need to be super fast, need a nice cabin for Kelly and the kids to get out of the heat, need reliable power and need to be able to run local lakes but still rock out in the Pacific to Catalina Island and the Channel Islands out front of our house. It all comes down to whats out there when I'm ready to pull the trigger, but I'm not against owning a non cig. I'd like to stay with a Cig and a Café would be great, but most cafes on the market aren't what I'm looking for. I'd like to buy Kevin Schulte's Café back that's for sale right now (the one the dude re-named Sea Buiscut with 500EFI's) just because I know the history and it's in good shape but It's a little more than I want to spend. And Bobby's not pulling my Cig card, sh!t, he was raised on all types of boats, though the majority were Cigs ;) |
And on the topic of that 24 Outlaw....It was a fantastic boat. I ran it in the pacific ocean all the time in water that I probably should not have been in, but I was young and a bit more care free. It ate up rough water though and was a lot of fun. Bought it new and had it for 8 years when I sold it and bought the Top gun.

Is that your old boat in the pic? I think it's also for sale right now, no? Maybe by the guy you sold it to.

As I stated in a previous thread on this boat, my only knock is the quad bolsters. However, a socket and ratchet can make sure work of those. Run 'em when you need them, take ;em out when you want a dance floor!

Go for it Tank...a buddy has a 33OL and I love the boat. If money was an issue(and it is for me), I wouldnt think twice, hell, Id even like to put like to put a pair of 625HP in a 29OL !
|
Maybe sold?
