Default 1989 Power Play Integra 185 Restoration Project

Last fall I pickup a 1998 Power Play Integra open bow in alright shape. Mostly dirty with some tears in the vinyl. Engine seems to run well.

I'm not sure how far I will take the restoration at this moment. I just want to be able to cruise the lakes around West Michigan in style

One thing that is driving me crazy is finding others that have this same boat or finding any stock information about it!

Just thought I would post and let you all know what I'm working on. Below are some picture from fall. I will have more when I get it out of storage out this week.

Tonywelcome to the world of PowerPlay/Powerquest.If you post either in the Powerquest section at the bottom of the forum
or go to Facebook and find the Powerquest boatowners page you will find some help.If you need more help than that you
can contact Advantage Marine in Zeeland, Dave is a former Powerplay employee and knows our boats well.Just finished
a major refit on my 1988 230 Conquest (SECOND TIME I'VE OWNED THIS BOAT).There is also a PowerPlay/Powerquest
fun run coming up Aug.16,Grand Haven to Holland(Boatwerks for lunch) then back to Port Sheldon and finally back to G.H.

No,problem,you should be able to find plenty of help and info local, there still seem to be quite a few 185's
out there.In fact I saw your twin sitting in a driveway two miles from my house one week ago.

Tony,if you wind up doing any upholstery work I can probably help you with some color swatch numbers,
I just had my cockpit redone stock and the colors are a perfect match.My interior is white with burgundy
and gray stripes.

Sup Tony... heres some pics of my almost finished Integra... its been about a 3 year resto on it. Motor was done by White performance in TN and interior was all done by me. Motor is a 383 and the boat runs 74-75 with an Alpha SS, but still have prop testing to be done and some weight distribution. Hopefully will see the 77-78 by the end of summer. . If you need ANY help with anything on the the boat just PM me. They are great little boats!!
