Thanks in advance.....

25OL is a great boat, one of the most popular and many TBM MEMBERS have 'em. I just sold my 25 and if it wasnt for the new 30, I would have kept her.

I spent quite some time doing research on several boats and many different brands, there are so many factors in making a decision. I finally decided on the 25 Outlaw. It was the best boat (in that price range)for dozens of reasons. I've taken it out about three times so far and each time I like it more. It handles really well. The last time I was out, I was looking for rough water and would have gone in the ocean but that particular day there was so much haze I could not see the actual conditions. (Safety first!) But I did drive around the inlet which I'm sure you know can get rougher than the outside, and it handled great.
Taking my boat out tomorrow, cant wait!:biggrin

Where do you boat?

Oh, one more thing, if you read/ research all the reviews and comments of 25 Outlaw owners on this site or any other, they are usually happy with their Outlaw. Most of the time when they do sell, it's only to go bigger and better. ($$$$$ Ie. at least an extra 5 feet and another engine!)

The 25 Outlaw is without doubt one of the best in its class.
Check out other makes as well and compare. You'll feel better in the end knowing you did.

Regardless, I think you'll be back to the Baja.

My 03 is going back to the dealer as a trade in in July when my 05 30 OL arrives. Had it not been for the 30 I would probably keep the 25 for many years.:D

Man you hit the nail on the head I started with a 24 Outlaw And then a 25 to a 29 and now a 36 and looking at a 40. The Outlaw is the best bang for the buck. When you get one all you will do is start looking bigger. The ride is great

I see what you mean.. I look at the 29's and the new 30 and am already salivating and havnt even bought my Outlaw yet.

I know what ever you get you will be happy with. Try to get as big of a motor as you can afford. That is why I sold my 29 Outlaw it only had 454s in it and I wanted 500s. I love them and they love GAS but what the he!! you only live once:biggrin

I just upgraded from a 232 Islander w/496mag. to a 25Ol with Mag H.O. and absolutely love it. Works well at LOTO and is the king of the small lakes. Buy it!!

[wrp99]

Handling, etc.... Just curious. btw 98 has 502 04 has 496 mag ho

Go with the 496 Mag HO.
