ive done alot of bragging trying to sell it---didnt work!
yes i know how to drive it
dam good boat??? no baja as a whole is more like an average boat
not to say i haven't had a good time using it it hasn't given me any problems besides resale--but in my opinion baja is more an entry level boat
which isn't all bad , bayliner has a large fallowing to--theres a boat for everyone

I wouldn't get all worked up over Dave 502 with only 9 posts.
He is just one of those A-Holes who has an axe to grind and cannot come on here and tell us who he really is.
If his story is true he must have one ragged out boat.

I've got a 98 25' Outlaw,it has 325hrs. on it I have one crack in the corner of the cockpit,other than that it looks brand new no fading,stress cracks,the interior still feels like a new boat,I don't know what people expect out of things, maybe people should think about taking better care of their ****,instead of blaming the problems on the manufacture,you hear it with everything boats,cars,snowmobiles it doesn't matter what it is.I think people just like to hear themselves *****.

I am currently a proud PQ owner, but also a proud two time Baja owner. My 272 was solid and NEVER porpoised or chine walked. (My 232 was a different story, but that's OT.) But I have already said my peice elsewhere. And I think Lucky is listening.
I know he test drove a Sunsation 288 yesterday.

I totally disagree with the average boat statement. Take a ride on Dock Holidays boat. If you come back, and still call it average, I will kiss your bare ass on TV (that is if Dock doesnt throw you overboard before you get back!)

Isnt 502 the police scanner code for a drunk driver?

I am a Baja owner and I have to agree with Dave 502, my 1998 272 had a slight blemish in the mold work, but more concernining was the way it chine walked at 65 mph. I would drag the tabs alittle to stablize the ride at a 2-3 mph loss of speed. I also experienced stress cracks around the cabin door. I sold the boat after 1 season. I still like Baja and own a 280 Sportfish. Bottom line, you get what you pay for.

if you dont thyes i posted my opinion in the powerquest forum also---so did lucky--so just replying to him -- and my boat is flawless besides the factory blemishes in the mold
502--if you didnt have a clue already is for 502mpi
and ill bet my ass my boat is in better shape than anyones here---unless your boat has less than 20 hrs on it
i would have to agree a little with bad timming because i to have had 3 cars 2 trucks that i was selling and not much luck---but i have recently sold 2 of them just not the baja

You are exactly right! I was not on the board yesterday at all. I was sucking those diesel fumes all day long on the road. 11 hrs of 75 mph in Ohio and Pennslyvania....only 20.3 MPG
I have a 1996 272. No issue at all with the craftsman ship. I have been in 3-5 ft swells and I felt safe too. Didn't run all out @ 5,000 RPM's, but I really didn't want to drink coffee at the same time either
7' swells and can't tell Wow! By every boat like that. I have personally driven a 280 silencer, did not have a four blade prop, but I tell you want, I drove it on calm water and the thing chine walked so bad I didn't feel safe in it at all.
Now back to the fumes
