I have to agree with this quote. We have seen it before. Only now he is bringing other members down to his level.

A toast to the dumb asses! If we didn't have them our hourly rate would be much less.

You PP guys make me laugh. PP might be a nice boat, but a Cigarette it is not. You can chit all over the Cig, who cares? In the end, PP is just another wannabee Cig and inferior if you really want to talk about Build Quality and such. Yes, I'm sure there may have been a month or two, when PP had their act together and built a super quality boat, like Cig. But keep in mind, not better. And what about the other months? Consistency is what makes a legend. Finally, enjoy your boats for what they are and don't feel bad that their is not a number one on the side. And go find another tired Cafe to pass to make yourselves feel better. You are not kidding anyone, including yourselves.

Now see,,,who is the down lever here???........did i call anybody names ??.....and it was actually a CIG guy that started all this .

All i can say is ok...if thats how u feel thats fine,,,to me the CIG is not the better boat ,,,not worse either,,,just not worth the pricetag.
And like i said before,,,i had one and been on allot of them ,,nice boats but ,,,,just another boat.

Stay safe and watch out so u don't get passed by me.

Everybody is entitled to their opinion. I am glad you like your PP. They are nice lookin boats. I always enjoy their profile as I pass them.

lol,,,the funny thing is i don't even own one anymore !!!

But hey ,,,,,no bad feelings i like lip ship ,,,but like i said to much green,,,and still only a boat .

PP ,,much cheaper and still smoke Cig's if not modified.
Whatever,,,the point is ....everybody loves they'r toy !!
So have fun on the water .

Congratulations you pics of all 4 33's made before no one else bought them...because why?

We are all entitled to our own opinion. I love all boats, including cigs, ol's(heck we owned one) pp's etc. They all have their good points and bad.

Now drag the Gladiator up to Champlain this weekend for the fun run so we can finish this discussion

Um, no. If you check out my avatar that would be the World Championship boat from 1998 with Craig Barrie at the wheel. Then, Lucky Strike's TS boat (2000 and 2001?) and the Rio Roses boat. Those don't seem like late 80's early 90's to me. Farily recent.

And, it doesn't take a highly modified TG to run well. How about twin 675's and 102mph+ in a side-by-side Bravo/ITS setup? I would think that would give a PP a run for it's money.

I find it funny when another boat manufacturer references Cigarette as a point of comparison - just like the sign that used to be in PP's office.

There's only one original, kinda like Coca-Cola. After all, I never hear someone ask "Is that one of them there Powerplay boats?"

I agree,,,but those did not make a legend out of CIG,,as well as me being National champ with my Aero-tek .
I i haven't forgoten the Cig in europe ,,,allthough it's a skater.
