Went over it pretty close. Salesman told me they are not using wood stringers in this boat? Hmmm... Cabin is a bit different than any other Baja... not at all like the 29. The 30 actually has great headroom and an enclosed head to starboard. Quoted me 76-77 mph with the 496 HO package.

Cord took some pics, I'm trying to get them from him.

Thanks for the shots!

I really like the shifters and the throttles on opposite sides.

That is really a nice looking boat.

COOL!

Hard to justify $156k on anything much less a boat huh?

I've looked over 3 of the 30 OL's and besides the price I don't like two other things.

1. The liner used in the cabin is grey colored and stands out like a sore thumb everywhere you look in there.

2. Why Baja didn't incorporate the head and galley into the mold of the liner is beyond me. All the other manufacturers do this and it makes for a nice clean look. Baja didn't and their head and galley look like an afterthought. Poor engineering and design for such a hyped boat.

Im almost positive the one in NYC boat show had white gel in the cabin liner. Looked nice and clean to me. Nothing worse than a smelly(moldy) carpet in the cabin that you can't get out because its glued in. I like the snap in one they had in the 30. If it gets ruined just throw it out and put a new one in. I agree with you about the head and the galleyThey should have made it one piece like Sonic and Cig does. Oh, IMO the new graphics suck. Makes the boat look cheap, and we all know its not!
