Re: 30 Outlaw in Powerboat Mag
Beast1,
I agree with you on the "entry level boat" comment. I do not consider a boat that is capable of running 80 stock an entry level boat.
I did not like the comment about the boat not dominating 2-3 footers. I am sure if you had other boats in the same class they would all be really close.

That boat rocks and there is no noised with the cabin door. Maybe they should try to drive it with the door open like everyone else. Just my two cents
I didn't see the comment about the boat not domminating the 2-3's but I can tell you my 24' hits that stuff every time I use it practically and hammers them down Ask Al, he's seen it run

I had an H2X and have boated all over the country with it, Lake Michigan, Texas, Florida and NY. Let me tell you the roughest water being Lake Michigan and New York Harbor. Never once was a scared of the boat not being able to handle the rough water.
If my H2X could handle 2-3 footers and water taxi wake I would bet the 30 Outlaw could dominate 2-3 footers.

Very true

That boat runs hard and Tank knows how to drive it! Shiat, we get 2 to 3's inside the breakwater!

Re: 30 Outlaw in Powerboat Mag
When they said "entry level" I think they meant entry level into twin engine boats, not boats in general.
Is anybody running really big power in a Baja? Like Sterlings, Phaffs, Zuls, etc? I don't think I've ever seen one. I'd like to see a 36 Outlaw with about 900HP per side!
