What's up RDP! I've been reading the forums for some time now...
I grew up in Tempe boating all around Arizona with my neighbors who owned a few different Eliminators. Wish I could go back to being a little shit going boating with $10 in gas money and a sack lunch...fuck was that the good life!
I bought my own ride back in April of 2018 after a few years of searching. She's a 2003 Baja Outlaw 20' and I'm the 3rd owner. I got her for a steal even though it was turnkey sitting on the factory eagle trailer w/ good tires. We ended up putting about 86hrs on the clock the first season. The original owner must of ordered every single option Baja had at the time because this little kidney puncher is loaded. I've been towing with a little 4.0L Tacoma and have been suprised at how well this cute little Tacoma/Outlaw combo has worked out.
I store my boat in Tempe and splash at Pleasant, Bartlett and Saguaro for the most part. I've trailered the boat over to Havasu a few times and most recently took it up to Powell for a week. She's been in Apache, Canyon and Roosevelt too but we typically day trip closer to the valley. My girl and I like to camp so we're typically bow heavy with all our gear while cruising out to find a cove most friday nights.
We most enjoy anchoring in coves and listening to good music. We seldom take out the slalom ski but we get a little froggy every now and then.
I'm going bigger after this season once the tow rig gets upgraded. I've been spending the last few weeks reading through this forum and a few others about Hallett and Formula boats. I'm pretty set on a Hallett 270s straight hull closed bow exactly like the one in the classifieds section but I'm just won't be ready until next year...
