Progression boats have a great line to them, a bit old school but that Powerplay looks sweet! Any more pics?

A few... It's definitely a boat I miss from time to time. Super easy to tow, easy to launch and load alone, high 50's, 24* deadrise. I may own another someday, but it's the only I/O on my radar. This is a Michigan PowerPlay, before the lawsuit/name change to Powerquest.

Speedracer29, I'm gonna steal this photo from you and post it the next time I see someone having a dig at pontoon boats.
If I lived on a nice placid lake or river, I'd own a toon with a bar, some lounges, an eggbeater and a thatched Bimini top!
How good would that be?
