Default 29 Powerquest Search

Well after months of looking and trying to decide if there were any other brands out there that would fit our family needs I've narrowed it down to Powerquest and Formula. Once again I'm leaning towards the Powerquest as the mid 90's Formulas have dated interiors where as the Powerquest seem to by more on par with current trends. So with that said I was was wondering if anyone knew of a nice 29 with less than 250 hours that maybe available. I've looked at nearly all the sites I could find with not much luck. I want to avoid the older pastel colors and stay with the standard reds,purple, black and so on.

Or maybe theres a nother manufactur I'm overlooking. Keep in mind I have 3 childeren so cockpit space is important. Otherwise I'd by picking up a 31 SS Sonic.

What is your price range? I just did a search on boattrader and saw at least 3, 290's that meet your criteria. Don't get hung up on number of hours. How the boat has been run and maintained is much more important than what an hour meter reads.

I used to own a 1997 290 Enticer and I think if you can find one you will be happy with it. It has a nice ride and handles Lake Michigan pretty well. I sold mine to a person here on OSO and he may be ready to sell by now as he has had it for about three seasons. Maybe he will chime in here if he is ready to sell or not. I also saw some 290's on boattrader and speedwake. Good luck in your search.

Pkspx, I did see both of those boats, the 1st has the old graphics that don't appeal to me as well as the newer one.

As far as price I figured I should be able to find a pretty nice 29 for less that $45,000.

On the hour issue I would agree, My 26 has 400 hrs and most would estimate its 2-3 years if not new. I've seen boats with a 100 hrs that look 20 years old.

I was thinking that maybe someone knew of something out there that was not listed..

Dock.... I still mabye interested in taking a look at yours, When you get a chance drop me a PM.

Thanks

That wouldn't happen to have been cbgnrl, would it? If so, it is a very nice boat. Wally, give Holmes a call and tell him you have the PQ sold and you've found a nice Vyper or Cheetah you want to get into!
