Welcome

Congratulations on becoming the new owner of the world’s #1 performance boat. Baja® Marine Corporation welcomes you into our worldwide and ever-expanding family of boating enthusiasts.

The Owner’s Manual Packet, to be kept on board your Baja, gives you important information on all the features of your Baja. For years of trouble- free boating, take the time to carefully review the information in your Owner’s Manual Packet and really get to know your boat. Everyone that operates the boat should read this manual.

The Owner’s Manual Packet contains the following:

Owner’s Manual: The Owner’s Manual gives you important operating and safety information, as well as reminders about your responsibilities as a boat owner/operator.

Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Information: This section of your Owner’s Manual Packet contains information from the manufacturers of equipment installed on your boat. Examples include the engine, engine control and steering system. Throughout the Owner’s Manual you will be referred to information provided by manufacturers of specific systems.

Because your purchase represents a substantial investment, we know you will want to take the necessary measures to protect its value. We have outlined a program for proper operation, periodic maintenance, and safety inspections. We urge you to follow these recommendations. If you have questions which are not fully covered by the Owner’s Manual Packet, please consult your authorized dealer for assistance.
