MdMark, Skater built them. The Skater/Baja deal never went thru. Skater initially did the design for Baja. Baja dropped the ball.

Chuck, the orange 39 does have 6s... I would love to see a couple more pics.... if you dont mind! I wont be out there until October or November. Thx
That will be no problem...I'll be there either this weekend or next weekend. Don't know for sure but it will be soon i'll take a bunch of pic's to let everyone check out. It is a sweet ride from what i saw....

gawd...those are sweet boats. The red one does have better cockpit IMO. Stand up seats. More refined cockpit. Something about the orange cockpit just looks like a mock up or something.

Definitely out of the two the red boat is more of your pleasure boat that will compete with outerlimits and cig. Getting into the orange boat you are looking at a ton of speed like in a cat but V bottom set-up. So of course the red boat will have the more refined cockpit etc...Red boat like an ol, luxury and power...orange boat all power and light weight therefore less luxuerious.

The orange one is WAY nicer than the red one IMO. Six person cockpit, small cabin, dual helm, full stagger, wind protection, merc power, 6's, etc. The only thing it does not have is a rubrail. Better complete package.

I would love to see one with the one-piece wrap windshield. I think that would look killer! Anyone know if they have made any?
