A 33' powerplay will keep up with most boats that are bigger than its size. Definitely not a 38' top gun, but it will hold its own. Thats what they are known for. Big water, high quality custom v hulls.

Dont knock them until you have ridden in one and got up close. I think you will be surprised![/quote]

I have seen more stress cracks in a 38 TG then in a 33 PP ,,,handling ,,ofcorse does a longer boat take the beating better then a shorter one ,,,but HIGH QUALITY ????? On a cig ?
mmmmmhhhhh................Whatever.....?!
All i am saying that a 33 PP is capable of keeping up ,maybe not @ 80+ but u need twin 1000 and some heavy drives to make a TG run those speeds .
We are talking 7200 pounds verses 12000 pounds !!!!!
With stock power ,my PP ran 76 on GPS, 454 mag and Bravos.
A buddy of mine had a TG same engine package ,,i smoked him in all kinds of water,,because he could not even get the stern up in that heavy sled.
Then a Cafe with 420's and TRS joined the club ,,,,,smoked him as well,,,so first of all ,,,i guess we should determine what power in each boat and where are u going to boat with what in mind...party's and allot of people on board or just fun runs.......otherwise all these comparisons don't make sense.
Also the budget factor is A REAL BIG THING between the 2 boats.
And like i said before ,,,4-6 footers in both ,,u need balls,,in the PP a little bigger ones ,,but if the boat is dialed in correctly ,,it should hang with a 38 easy.
Handling ......what kind of handling are we talking ???.......docking and trailer ....+2 for PP
5-10Foot seas ,,,,+1 for TG (older ones)the new ones will fall apart)
Fuel economy ,,,,no way a TG can hang with a 33PP in that point.
Maintenance ,,i say PP wins.
Working on the engines,,,TG has more room to work on.
Cabin ,,ofcorse the TG wins.
It all depends,,but lets not compare speed and handling in 5+ seas because thats not what a boater want's anyway's and its out of question that u need twice as big of a check book for the TG then for the PP.
If i would still have mine ,,i give all of u Cig guys a ride in it ,and u would probable think about selling your cig.LOL
Later.

PS.: with my twin 650's and boxes infront of my Imcos,,,i smoked them anyways and all the time,,the only one i can think of that gave me a hard time ,,THEN,, was a 388 Hustler with twin 600 VOLVO's ???? mmmhhhh.........
here is apic of my old ride.

keep in mind I am not writing this I just copied it from the Power Play forum. This is from Daredevil. I am just curious if you guys disagree

Maintenance ,,i say PP wins.
Working on the engines,,,TG has more room to work on.

I thought these two back to back were funny....

Powerpoop beats the Cig in quality? I dunno about that.

Well...what really gets me is in another post he said it will run with a 41...since Cig doesn't make a 41 footer there can only be one manufacturer he is refering too...yep, a 33 Power Play will run with a 41 APACHE!!!!

This thread can now officially go down the tubes.

Anybody want to trade straight up for my TG. I think I need a powerplay...... I didn't realize it until I read that post ....

Sorry I have to keep this going, I am bored at the office today

And to answer your other question I have ridden in a 38 PP but like yours it was on a lake so I can't say much the ride through real slop.

WOOOOHHH,,,when was the last one they did win ??? 1990 ??

My friend ,,don't ride on things u have no clue about,,,DON ARONOW won all these championships back in the day and some followed him in the 80's and early 90's.
Powerplay won championships as well ,,in less time ,,if they would still race and be around they would probable win again.
If i had one i would. I sold mine ,,the stupidest thing i have done.

So don't even go there.

U all live on a LEGEND and NAME ,,thats it !!!
And like i said i like Cig's but if u compare a stock Cig with a stock PP ,,,NO CHANCE !!!!

Sorry again.

I could have have saved thousands and went with a 33 PP. I have to say I do like the PP but to put it in the same league and call it hte victor........well thats not even funny

All these guys are the same. He would give his left n-t for a Cigarette if given the opportunity. I guarantee you he has a Cigarette shirt in his closet.

yeah...strong...right
