28 Powerplay
 
I posted this in the powerplay owners forum and have not gotten any info I was wondering if anyone else knows about them! I know about the state of the company and all that bull I really dont care I have not heard much about these boats over the years and I would just like some info thats all!


Can anyone give me any info about the 28 powerplays! The difference in handling between a single, twin small blocks, or twin big blocks? What about speeds twin 330 454s or twim 350 small blocks stock? Any info that you guys have is appreciated
Thanks

Yeah Mike mine to I love the lines, speeds, and quality! I have been on a 33 and a 38 but never a 28 I was wondering what the story is anyone?

I was lucky enough to have visited Powerplay in person a few years back and saw firsthand the awsome boats they made.

The hull of the 28 is or was, actually pulled from a blocked off 33 mold but with a different deck. This was how they used to do it as I was told by Bosco when he used to work there. I am not sure if the 28 has seen enough demand to justify a seperate mold for the hull or not. But at least the 28's running surface is derived from the tried and true 33.

In short, the 28 is a scaled down version of the 33, physically and visually.

Twins made the 28 a bit tail heavy, not to mention, a real ***** just to change spark plugs due to cramped space, so they prefered to do small blocks for the 28.

I have ridden in both a powerplay 28 and a pantera 28 and the cockpit and engine room are much larger in the pantera 28.

Too Old what were your opinions on the difference in the cockpit area between your buddys powerplay and your pantera?
