Welcome to Serious.
I see you're a west coast guy. I'm a recently relocated AZ guy.
What year/size Baja?
I used to have a 25' that I abused for a few years.
Post some pics, and enjoy the fun here.
Unfortunately the traffic tends to slow down for us west coast guys at this time of night - but we're trying to change that.

How do you like AZ, is it hot enough? We stopped off at Havasu on our way back from New Mexico with the new boat this past summer - felt like a sauna out there! I think it was 106 out.

2007 26 Outlaw, that's my boat in the avatar I'll post a few more since you asked.

I moved out here to Tempe last spring from Cinci/Kentucky area. Originally grew up in Toledo, so I'm a Lake Erie boy. I've got a 24 Pantera -I just need to put it back together...:willy_nilly:

Thanks! 496 HO, no blue motors yet! This is my first boat and I already want twins (don't we all?). I'll have to wait a few years for that though...

I'm from Texas, moved out here in 1999. Let's see the Pantera!

Looks Badazz, and well kept.
You have to get nervous anytime you see her on the forktruck.
Great looking boat.

You're gonna fit right in around here.

Thanks! These photos were taken right after a full detail with Leverage.

Nah, I don't really want twins.
I'm pretty happy with single - that means you only have one headache to worry about. And, It's less expensive to fix/upgrade ONE motor/drive than two.
This hobby is too expensive to begin with, why double it when you can actually have more fun and relaxation time with a smaller/single motor boat.
I'm in the resto stages of the Pantera.
The cool things about these boards...
I know the three previous owners of this boat, and I consider one of them a close friend, I know the history of this boat, and I've met the guy that actually built my old boat (Pepe).
Here's a link to the thread on my project. Not moving along as quickly as I'd like, but sometimes Life gets in the way of what you really want to be doing.

We did the forklift thing with our boat for 9 years. It's nerveracking every single time they lift the boat in or out. I never got use to it.

Thanks for the compliments guys! No, not planning on racing but I decided to go with a race number instead of a cheesy name.

Baja by Fountain boats started in 2009 so I have one of the last year Baja's. The dark gelcoat should be fine in the long run since it's never in the water for more than 48 hours at a time, when not in the water it's kept indoors on the rack.

I have a great detailer that spends 6 hours on the boat head to toe, I've already had that done twice and just bought the boa in June 2009!

I really liked keeping my boat in a rack. No fuss, no muss, and if you take care of the lift operator with hops and barley they take really good care of your boat too. Yours looks great!

Welcome LSU, you need to start a thread and show us some pics, if you have them, on your update. Many of the forum members are in the process of their own upgrades of one type or the other and really like threads like that.

Good to see you over here Ed. Much to learn here. Not specifics about Baja so much but knowledge about boats in general. There is more technical info here than any other site (that I know of) on the web.

I think I need to talk to Chris about XT-Innovations sponsoring the Baja section on Serious, what do you think?
