Default Again, why hasn't this boat sold?!

I'm about to go out and buy this thing. Seems like a lot of boat for the money and in what appears to be good condition. Is it the prospect of the other motor droppin? I can't see anything negative about this boat. Ultra optioned out, good paint, great motor package. WTF?

I noticed it too. Good graphics, etc. only thought was that the motors had not had the top ends done yet. Figured that why it had 1 new engine. I found a 302 baja close to me when I was looking with hp500s and they had replaced 1 engine...... but nothing done to the other and over 300 hours and no top ends.... especially given that 1 popped already.

It's a nice boat and priced right. Even if you had to rebuild that motor.

I couldn't imagine you in a Baja unless it was the 90 mph paint scheme as shown on their web site...

LOL, I owned a 24 Baja Outlaw and LOVED it! I couldn't afford a Cigarette at the time so I bought a Baja. I was 21 yrs old. It was a great boat! I love the lines of the 33, I like the room for 7 in the "bus" seating and that cabin has a real head, a fridge, room for a microwave, sink, seating with a table and a bed - perfect for the family. Lighter and a bit smaller than a Café or a Gun and less money for a newer boat with newer power.

Just an option

I think because one motor needs the top end done, and it spent part of its life in salt water

I've met Mick, the owner a couple times. He's pretty much checked out of boating and is now into high speed runs & drag racing in his 5th Gen Camaro that has been 800-1100HP over it's last couple iterations. The guy who put his Camaro together also did my Corvette. http://www.lsxmag.com/features/car-f...011-camaro-ss/

He told me he bought the boat from Connecticut; and brought it down to VA. Where he lives/boats on the Potomac it's barely brackish; and he did a lot of boating on Lake Anna too.

I've never seen the boat, but I do know he wants to get rid of it.

Yep, with those motors! I may be a lil biased! We love our 33ol, we didnt want to 2nd set of bolsters b/c we wanted the walk space. I added 2 56qt chest with pads for the kids to sit on the sides and use gunnel pads for back rests. Works perfect!

ONLY downside that i have found.... over 50-55, the bench passengers are blown away b/c they are so far back from the windshield. But I cruise in that range, so its not a real issue.

If you pull the trigger, you wont be disappointed, I had one for a few years and loved it, 502 mag mpi's and single bolster seating, the ride of the 33OL is outstanding and the lines ( IMO ) are the best of the OL line,

Is that your old boat in the pic? I think it's also for sale right now, no? Maybe by the guy you sold it to.
