if they were the same build and quality they would cost similar, I have seen many..my buddy had a 36 outlaw, now has a 38 Gun, the gun crushes WAY better... sorry...and thats a TS gun over the straight Baja hull... TS never ride as good as straight bottom boats..again, I am also referring to our Lake Erie, not inland lakes or oceans....
This video is my Mistress in 4-6 footers we see regularly on the great lakes, newer cigs run it just as good without beating you up... I never said the Baja cant run it, I just said you will feel it a ton more...

However, any modern offshore boat of similar size still would have walked him that day. When you can only do 50 mph, your boat and interior are dated, you find yourself talking about wave crushing all day

Never said I was the fastest thing on the lake, just faster than your wave crusher.
In a way I am defending OSS from the trolling of YOU, the guy that jumps on threads and praises how you have the best rough water boat in the world, and lake Erie has the most treacherous boating conditions in said world.
Did it ever occur to you that in your opinion the two best rough water boats are the two that you have owned?
50 mph in the video you posted doesn't impress me, just think if you could have did 75 mph you wouldn't have even known those wave were there

not everyone needs a newer modern boat to be happy... I get the same place you do... maybe not as fast but with less bruises I can assure that..fountains are so great too.... how's buisness there? oh yea..Reggie's had tough times....
I was not bashing anyone's boats either till you bashed my dated boat... again.. I love my dated old boat... so I'm good
