I went in thinking lets see this crappy Baja construction and came out with a couple wore out hole saws and a new respect.
How 'bout i just end this discussion with, " I Hate Baja's".

Never heard that about a 41', heard the 47' was a tank, I rode on a 47' with 3x850, ran 80 mph, smooth. Yes, a lot of power, but a fantastic ride.

You trust your lives that these boats can withstand what we use them for.
We could run our boats against each other any time you want. Same year. Close in length. I doubt yours runs 100 like mine but I will govern mine to whatever your top speed is and still outrun you in the rough, corners, etc. all while PUTTING MY LIFE IN DANGER I invite you up to LAKE MICHIGAN where I run 100s of miles a day in the rough......oh wait OSO says lake Michigan does not produce big waves and that NOAA lies about its wave heights

Flying just as nice as a AT..........

For the record, I have liked every Baja I've ever ridden in...33 Outlaw and 2 different 36 Outlaws. I thought all were great boats. I like my boat, too. And, as stated earlier, I'd buy an Outerlimits next, if I do move up instead of getting out of the game...

How the HELL do I contribute to this argument????????

If you notice, the three boats in the background, are not popping like corks, in the same waves. I grew up on Lake Erie, I know big waves. What is your point?

The point is you do boat in big waves....hence the gulf of Mexico reference.....you see the Gulf of Mexico is a larger body of water compared to Lake MI......F" it this is a dumb thread I am out....

Whoever started this thread should be shot, I feel dumber for reading my own posts.

"Versus" threads should be banned on OSO!

Its all good!

If we were all rafted up together saying the same stuff, we would choose to understand and appreciate everyone's opinions and facts. Enjoying good boating convo. But some Keyboard Cowboys Just don't know how to have fun!

OSO is what keeps us "alive" until next summer! If some of the other members can't enjoy it we will just have to make the best of it
