  1. I agree with Dick 150% You should have any Baha Surveyed before you purchase it. And I own one! LOL! Please PM me with any questions as I purchased an 89 that was "surveyed" and I lost my shirt on the deal. I now own a 92 28 Baha Fisherman. As far as a Baha goes if it is solid you will not find a better Hull for rough water period. And I am sure I will take flack for that comment! LOL! My guess would be if it hasnt had bulkheads and stringers done in the last 5 years its going to need them as well as a transom. I am not saying that is the specific boat you are looking at I am just saying what I know on pre 92 Baha's. Let me just say again That I love Baha's they are the best rough water boat, but you gotta know what you are purchasing. As for the 351 Clevelands they are bullet proof. It probably also had Borg-Warner transmissions which are also bullet proof.

    Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

    P.S. Older sport crafts also have Bulkhead and stringer issues. But then again pre 90 Tiara's also have bulkhead rot so it is the nature of Beast!!!!!!!!!

  3. I am going to regret this I am sure but:

    I think the current times at least on the pro side are just fine. And if your boat breaks "SORRY" but its tourney fishing and your equipment better work!! You absoultely better be penalized if your boat breaks!!

    Tourneys are Tourneys!!! Run what you brought to the party!!!! Tournaments separate the Best thats what they are there for.

    I have broken my boat during these, and know plenty of people that have and its all part of the game! 3 years ago I was bolting an outdrive on my boat in Sodus at ten in the evening, that I had a friend drive in from 100 miles away that evening so I could fish on Sunday. We came back and finished in the money.

    I know several people whos strategies have been busted on Sat morn as they were running and there boat broke. And they have adjusted and finished in the Money.

    Thats Tournament Fishing!!

    Just my opinion!
