Dun Canoein:
You are comparing a mass production product to a semi-custom one.
The answer to your question lies in (1) your demo ride and (2)your comfort with support from your local dealership. As a Sunsation dealer, I can assure you that the factory support from Sunsation is outstanding. However, it is your local dealership that will ultimately deliver that service to you.
I would be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding Sunsation and I would urge you to go visit the manufacturing plant.

Jay..... a 32SS does not have a pad bottom..... The 288 and 32 dominator do, but not the 32SS.
And the 35 Lightning optioned similarly is not near the same price as a 32SS...... my buddy shopped both and the Sunsation was a way better value. And I would bet a 12 pack that the cabin on a 32SS is the same size as a 35 Lightning.
Dun... where are you located? You should locate the appropriate dealers and drive both..... then choose which you like best...... I have a good guess it would be the Sunsation.

Re: Baja 30OL or Sunsation32SS
ZP'd....thanks for your input
Jayl13......I looked into the Executioner and Lightening and they were both quite a bit more $ with the 525's which is the way I want to go. With 496HO's they are close in price.....at least this is what I found in my research so far.
Megabyte....I am trying to arrange a visit to the Sunsation factory this coming week. My biggest problem (with buying any of these boats) is I live north of the border......you know, the land of the 14' aluminums with 9.9 kickers!!! ......so I am forced to purchase from a dealer that is not close to me. I'm not overly concerned about this though since I'm somewhat mechanically inclined and as long as the boat I choose doesn't have some major cosmetic/structural flaw, I should be OK. I'm going to give you a call now.
Thanks again to you all,

Chrome, I like Heineken so pay up! A 32 SS has a significantly bigger cabin than a Fountain product. I would agree a 32 Dominator and a Fountain are close but the new SS is much larger and has a separate head.
Dun,
Once you meet the guys at Sunsation you will be all done, you will just have to pcik your colors and write the check!

Re: Baja 30OL or Sunsation32SS
I owned 2 Bajas and bought a Dominator in'04, I couldn't be more pleased with the quality,ride,performance, and factory support with my Sunsation. The guys at Sunation are top notch people and will help with any issue no matter how big or small. IMHO you'll be happier with the SS.
