Lol wish I could find the pictures. A guy had an "affliction" shirt copied words, dragon and all onto his 35 Baja here in south LA.

I just don't understand why they can't keep it simple. If you can't get it right leave it all white! At least that's respectable

Wow, I love my Current and past Baja's but the current lineup on the website is embarrasing to say the least.

I wish they had the old crew back!

Came up with this little skit while looking through the interior pictures of the 30' Outlaw. LMAO

http://www.bajamarine.com/Boats/Outlaw30.html

Creeper W/ Hairy legs "Want to check out my cabin"
Hot Chick "Sure, must be nice since this is a GT model"

Creeper W/ Hairy legs "Glass of wine if you take your shirt off"
Hot Chick "Sure, let me just 'check in' on Facebook really quick"

Creeper W/ Hairy legs "Cheers! (she doesn't even know I roofied her wine)
Hot Chick "Cheers!"

Creeper W/ Hairy legs "Wow you look like a model"
Hot Chick "Thanks for the blanket because I'm getting Cold Feet"

That's why I said 6 year olds. My friends kid would love the skull boat, but he also loves plastic toys.

In all seriousness, Baja cannot afford to be making mistakes. Fountain was in the hole from what I read, over $50 million. Due to the fact that Reggie loved to use the company as a personal piggy bank. No matter what kind of deal Baja got there was still a tremendous amount of debt that needs to be taken care of. If your bread and butter brand takes a hit, which judging by everyones thoughts on the new boats, it will, this may be a short lived marriage between Baja, Fountain, Donzi and Proline. That or corners are going to be cut, in order to keep profits up like the late 80's/early 90's. A lot of good companies made crappy boats in that era.

I am 30 and I can say for 110% sure that I would not be caught dead owning a boat with a bunch of skulls or tribal crap all over it.

Most skulls I want to see on a boat is "Saddle Up" from Statment Marine.

I am in the same age range and you wouldn’t catch me ordering that but I know a bunch of people around that age that would.
Don’t get upset with me for saying the truth but if it makes you feel better I have also seen a couple of boats belonging to guys in there 40s with complete skull wraps on there boats.

I was looking at a 32 Black thunder in Des Moines, IA but couldn’t stomach the full skull wrap on the boat that that guy thought was the coolest thing in the world.

Funny I just browsed over that boat yeterday and thought how horrid the combination skulls and tribal was on that boat lol.

I actually like a very plain look and enjoy an all white boat with some small painted features that match the inside.
