whats the ride diff between 280 silencer an baja 29 outlaw
 

]I'm looking to go up alittle I have a 99 280 silencer an I'm looking for a little bigger twin. I love the PQ I have but I want bigger how much of a better ride do u think a 29 ol would have an what bought fuel . Were do they cruise with standard power thanks

I no fuel will be way more at that

I have a buddy with a 29 ol with 496 mag ho's it runs mid to upper 70s. Dosent ride any better than my 280. Over all i like my boat better. But im also a bias opinion being that im a baja hater.not big on the fact that thay are a production boat and people think thay are some high end boat like cig or something. ........


....PS...ive seen them stress crack..PQ dont

if ya wanna step up stay with PQ and get a 300 revenge or a 340 viper.

Hard to quantify difference in ride. I've only been in a 280 a couple of times. I remember them riding decent but IMO there is a noticable difference in ride. I also prefer the handeling of the 29 OL.

Fuel won't be a huge difference. I have twin 496 mags in mine. I run with several friends that have boats with single 496 HO's. On long runs when we're all running the same speed I burn 30 - 50% more fuel than they do. It helps that I can cruise the same speeds at lower rpm.

Really???? Not all of us can afford to run around in a custom built Powerquest. :Whatever:

Who said PQ were custom build dick? Were i boat at all the baja ownes THINK baja is the baddest best fastest boat on the market and i get sick of hearing it. The majority of them have never heard of anything other than a baja or fountain and thay call them all "cigar boats". Its not necessarily that baja is an inferior boat its the quality of the owners that i am around that i have a problem with.

Buddy's 270 PQ stress cracked like a biotch first year he had it at LOTO. It was a '98 and this was in 1999.

The 29 does handle better. Thats the only botch i have with my 280 is its handeling. The step hull makes is dangerous to turn at high speeds.

30-50% is not a lot to you? Sounds like a Hell of a lot to me!

Baja342- cmon now there is no reason to get butthurt over all this... Baja made a Sharp looking boat. PQ's were hand laid and have a reputation for being very soundly built hull's, with the 300 being designed by John Cosker I'd say that gives it a little bit of a more custom feeling than a Baja.

LOL I had this very same problem with Sunsation people! :lolhit:
