Wheres the link?? There was a thread on here like 2 years ago about a Baja Cat. I think Baja made only a few of them and then scrapped the idea. Someone posted pics of them from a brocure in that link.

That looks like the old race boat BAJA BANDIT. I saw it at the factory back in 1988. I always thought it was an Express Cat that Baja raced, didn't think they built it.

Baja did indeed, build and Race a cat for a very short while.
It didn't perform as well as it should have and they scrapped the project. There should still be a few laying around.

Below is a pic of one from

If my memory serves me correctly they had big structural problems with a lot of major cracks where the hulls would meet the decks. I was interested in one about 5 years a go and somebody talked me out of it.

With an 1988 Cat it would be almost impossible to insure.
