Where every figure comes from

Method

• Length, beam, weight, draft, deadrise at the transom, fuel capacity, passenger and sleeping capacity are copied as printed, imperial and metric.
• Engine options are copied word for word from the 1999 spec sheets, the only pages in our set that list them.
• A model with records from different years keeps all of them. When the builder printed a different figure later, the model page shows both and marks the row.
• Anything no source states is left blank. We do not estimate, average or "correct" the builder's figures.

Not verified yet

1995 Baja 340: not yet sourced. We have not found a builder page or brochure for a 1995 model 340, so it is not in the register. The 340 Sport Fisherman on the 1999 spec sheet is an outboard-powered centre console; no source we found says it is the same boat. If you have a 1995 brochure or owner's manual page, the register would like to cite it.

Years before 1996 and after 1999: not covered. The builder's earlier history is summarised on About from the sources listed under "History and trademark".
