Baja Launches the New 277 Islander for 2007
BUCYRUS, Ohio (October 5, 2006) - Baja Marine speeds into the 2007 model year with the brand-new 277 Islander, the flagship of the islander series. The 277 Islander offers Baja fans ample room for all their friends and toys combined with Baja's signature speed and performance. Baja has also recently introduced the 26 Outlaw, continuing to sharpen its focus on its core performance line-up.
Known for style, speed and performance, the 277 Islander pulls right into place in Baja's full-throttle lineup, with even more innovative features. Owners can opt for the more traditional straight bench seat or for the new, W-shaped seating that provides additional seating in the cockpit and an open walkway to the swim platform. Plus, higher gunnels ensure safety when blasting down favorite waters, while Baja's True-V hull plows through chop easily.
"There are many ingenious features we added to the 277 Islander," said J.R. Jenney, Baja's director of sales. "With this boat, you get the best of both worlds: you can entertain lots of people and still go fast."
With room for 10, an enclosed head and a 25-quart, built-in cooler, the 277 Islander extends the life of the party. For added comfort, bow seats hinge like lounge chairs. And water sports fiends will thrill at the storage compartments located both underneath and within the motor lid top and designed to hold water skis and wakeboards. Separate anchor storage under the front bow seat leaves additional room for passengers and keeps the seating area clutter-free.
"The 277 Islander is a great addition to the Islander line," said Jenney. "It truly takes our concept of fun, amenity-filled sport boats to the next level.
