Very nice combo, Baja are great boats. Don't let Dons Bolt see this, he has been thinking of upgrading his boat to a Baja and this would put him over the edge. lol
Again, sweet boat and the White Lightning looks perfect towing it, White is the best color.

If I were to guess 6.2 liter 320 HP, but two 496's are available at 375 or 425 Hp

thanks guys, now i just need the water to warm up abit, i see dry suit in my near future..

as for towing, it is lowered with a belltech kit 3/4, but i have the stock shackles on, so just the hangers are in use, and just towed it today for 20 miles or so and it seems to ride better and hit less than normal, if thats possible. but i am thinking of airbags for, just in case. if your bar hits try a receiver that angles up of do this youll get about 6 inches higher.



dons right on 496 with 375 amd alpha 1 drive its the 212 islander...

496ci is a lot of ponies for an Alpha drive. Be sure to keep it good and cool. Drive shower would be a good investment.

Just might be the year to replace my ZX33 Donzi.

Could someone photoshop that in Red ? J/K

Sweet boat & truck !!

I hauled a new washer & dryer 180 miles today. It was windy, rainy and is snowing at home right now.

I got to play with a new C5 up to 90 mph. with the washer and dryer in the bed.
