33 Powerplay in Boulder City, Nevada????
 
I just bought a 33PP with #4's on boxes and 540's. Does anybody know the boat??? It was owned by a heart surgeon out there.

jdub 07-21-2009 07:29 PM

I don't know the boat but...:worthless_without_p

send the pics to me [email protected] and I'll post them

302Sport 07-21-2009 07:36 PM

I dont have any pics right now, I deleted them from my email, and the guy took the ad offline once i wired the money. Ill try and get some though. I figured somebody would remember the boat cause there cant be too many PP's out west

302Sport 07-21-2009 07:39 PM

also, if anybody is looking to ship anything, go to uship.com.....the trip from vegas to connecticut is 2800 miles and ive already gotten quotes of $2400 from two different shippers, which is about 86 cents a mile............

rlj676 07-21-2009 07:41 PM

Congrats!!:ernaehrung004:

Welcome to the PP family.

Look forward to the pics. Is this a race boat/6 pack?

302Sport 07-21-2009 07:48 PM

no its a pleasure boat with a full cabin, not my style, but hey i got a good deal, and ive never heard a bad thing about a 33PP. Pat sullivan at perf. marine in lauderdale is who really got me into PP's a couple years ago, and when i saw this boat i couldnt pass it up

Indy 07-21-2009 08:01 PM

You're going to love that hull in Long Island Sound, if you haven't been in one you'll be surprised. The LIS chop is perfect for that boat.

Steve_H 07-21-2009 08:18 PM

Here is the add. I emailed the guy but never got a reply. You got a great buy!

Ad deleted.

Now I'm figuring my 28 deal was less good, haha.:picard1:

What year is it?

Steve_H 07-21-2009 08:36 PM

Thats weird. The add shows up fine for me.

302Sport 07-21-2009 08:38 PM

That is weird. Maybe you had previously visited it and it's stored in youre cache or something like that?

302Sport 07-21-2009 08:43 PM

302Sport 07-21-2009 08:56 PM

those are the pics that he sent me.........i finally got my boat running right, now i hope this thing isnt a basket case....

rlj676 07-21-2009 08:58 PM

Looks pretty cool, good luck! Did you have it surveyed at least, so you know it should be dry?

Looks like a 96 or newer as the exhaust is below the rub rail?

Mine also has a yellow bilge (but I have no other yellow on the boat).

northernoffshore 07-21-2009 09:00 PM

those are big hatches in the deck

302Sport 07-21-2009 09:07 PM

yeah i would love to find the history of this boat because i dont think it has a standard PP deck on it, also those recessed rope things instead of cleats, i always see on race boats....

jfm 07-21-2009 09:20 PM

I hope the date on the camera is wrong. 05??

I would contact gary colby(?) from the race site and ask him about it.

Gladhe8er 07-22-2009 08:18 AM

So are you saying this was the ex B-61 boat?

I took my first ride in a 33 PP this spring. Awesome boat. it is on my list for when/if I go bigger.

302Sport 07-22-2009 08:24 AM

we dont know for sure, im trying to figure the history out

northernoffshore 07-22-2009 08:26 AM

I am guessing, They mentioned rique ford built it or something like that. Look at the pics of the transom plate between the drives. Whatevever it's history , it's a pp with 4's.

DareDevil 07-22-2009 08:37 AM

It can't be the B-61 because that one was full stagger !!!
The plate on the transom is because of the SSM boxes are higher then the rubrail so they did not want to cutthe box they plated it to make up for the gap.
Also the seats in the back and the sides don't looklike PP ,the door for the cabin also.
The deck is a race deck and somebody mastered 2 old style hatches in it.
The exhaust usually comes out above the rubrail on a 33 that year ,,,,,so something is fishy !?

But who knows maybe the owner wanted it like that .
I still take it if u sell it.

TexomaPowerboater 07-22-2009 08:39 AM

Congrats! That was a steal.

baja27 07-22-2009 09:00 AM

Looks like a sweet ride. With those drives you don't ever have to get off the sticks! What speed did you get.

The ad doesnt work for me. What was the price?

302Sport 07-22-2009 09:51 AM

i havent run the boat yet, the guy claimed 95mph on a hot nevada day in fresh water.........

BajaFresh 07-22-2009 10:08 AM

I've never seen it on Mead. Ad link doesn't work. Was it through a broker?

302Sport 07-22-2009 10:20 AM

no

Steve 1 07-22-2009 11:43 AM

Looks like the stock deck and engine hatch .

'94 is the year they raised the hull 4 3/4". The exhaust is in the proper location if the year stated is correct.

Panther 07-22-2009 03:10 PM

Wow, the pics look much nicer then they did in the craigslist ad when I saw it!!! Looks like a nice boat and good luck with it!

I thought "Ed" had told me 96? I never saw the add so I still haven't seen what year this was claimed to be (or price if 302 wants to share what the ask was:p)

Either way, the 28's never had the hull raised I don't believe, and mine exits above the rail/swim platform but most 28's are below? So I believe they probably could do it either way regardless of the year. What's funny on mine is how TALL the risers are to get it to exit above the rail.

302Sport 07-22-2009 05:35 PM

i think over the winter i will change it to over the rail, it just makes me nervous having the tails sit that low, plus this thing is going to be a low rider with this set-up

302Sport 07-22-2009 08:04 PM
