Baja 30' Outlaw.

A true 30' boat, nice size cuddy, and runs damn good in the rough. I know a couple guys that have them. One of them ran next to me a couple weekends ago and I couldn't believe how well it ran in the rough.

Best of luck.

What 27 Magnum is for 25k? Do you mean this:

This Powerquest is a customers of mine and can personally vouch that this boat is absolutely perfect, and maintained meticulously.

Good Luck in your search.
Yep, a 290 PQ is an awfully nice boat in that range - and look, here's one that's even more affordable!

Sonic doesn't make a 28 footer any more. Not a great hull, pourposed Way to much.

Affordable? New or Used???? Big difference

I was simply making a statement about an experience I had... My post was not rude or derogatory toward you at all. Your post is completely rude and uncalled for. Your not a nice person.
