That is a bad azz boat! What mold is that splashed from?

Why staggered setup?

Kills the cabin space for a 36................

Nice looker though.

That was a really fun project and yes, that boat ran well. I agree with your sources. :daz:

So you would agree taller transom for side by side or staggered option, forward stepped bottom, (not reversed like Chief) and large a notched transom? Maybe a 5 degree reverse chine or better?

Sounds like a winner to me!

I did not get to view it in action, but I trust the source that told me the numbers and how well it ran. When I just looked at the bottom configuration I thought it had everything right. I say it's time to start from scratch, but any new 36 should have a hull design closer to the one they built.

(Just my opinion of course)

36 pantera hull and deck that checkmate finished for ducky's boats from what I recall .

Yep, cool boat for sure. WOTW2E did the rigging, we did the engine hatch and rear seating, Checkmate finished everything else. The Baja 36ol was a wave crusher but there is so much more we could do now to build a better one.

Older 36 Outlaws are still worth fixing up and having a nice boat at a fraction of the cost of a new one.

Wheres the boat now?

Only 1 built?

Was meaning cockpit space looked small for a 36 in previous post. Not cabin......
