Active, is that the 500hp boat that Randy Sweers had listed? I saw it at his shop on the trailer and it looked SWEET !!

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Cash,
Yes. I didnt want to say anything until every single thing was done. That pic is actually from a couple weeks ago when doing the survey. Im going to be in Fla at the end of April if anyone wants to hook up I'll be a Shooters on the 23rd. Then the boats coming to NY.

Semper... thanks for all your help.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

I looked at the boat in February and it was definately SWEET! Active - where do you primarily boat up here? Will we be seeing you up around CT?

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Active... great to hear it worked out!
Thats one sweet 33!
I hope to see you ripping it up off Atlantic Beach this year... cuz thats where I'll be spending most of my time. :(
At the Roundhouse.

Post more pics when u get a chance.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Thanks. I boat on the South Shore, Jones Inlet area. Possibly be in the Hudson for the NYC Poker Run.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Storm, Where is the Roundhouse. Im not too familar with the places west of Paddy's other than running in the ocean to the Atlatic Beach Inlet.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

The "roundhouse" is the Sands beach club in AB.
I have a cabana there.
All the fishing guys call it the roundhouse, cuz its a round building, easily identifiable from offshore.
And its Jones or Debs inlet, not Atlantic Beach inlet. ;)
I'll be looking for you. :D

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Have another at the ramp during the sea trial.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

That is one of the best looking Powerplays ever made. The paint is simply awesome. Congrats again. POWERPLAY lives on :D :D :D

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Thanks Gerard. I happen to love that the back seat are not just a straight bench.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Active- Congratulations great boat! While in Florida looking at another boat I stopped by Fastboats to see that Powerplay. First time ever in one. Very impressed! When I got home I decided I had to have one. I called to set up a sea trial and found out it was sold. I found this one a week or so later fresh out of the paint shop and bought it. Another proud new owner of a 33 Powerplay & new member of OSO. Hope to see you at the NYC poker run or maybe you could bring it up to Lake George for the Queens Demo Race in May.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Xpress, I love your boat. I looked into it before they decided to change the color but didn't want to wait to see what it was going to look like. It looks amazing and newer than mine. I like that it was newer but was tossing around the 496's compared to the HP500's. The valve springs were just done approx 40 hrs ago and the compression check was off the scale. I think I probably saved a few buck too?? Not sure. Nice boat.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

I did the same thing. I looked at the 2000 with the 500EFI's that Xtreme has. {Nice clean boat} But decided to go with the 02, 496HO's. The boat just looked like new with the paint and all. Ther are a few more things i need to do to her, like paint the air vents for one. I've been talking to Fred at Trick Marine about a few other ideas. I can't wait to get it up here to get started and to find out how fast she will run with the 496's. If anyone has any idea let me know. I've heard everything from 75 to 80. I read somewhere on OSO that they raised the drive hieght with the 496 package and it is supposed to run a little stronger.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

I looked at that boat too, but didnt want to go with the purple interior and liked the back seat in this boat better

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics

You suck. Friggin newbie! You'll be lucky to get that
resin bucket on plane.......he he. Jus funnin ya Ken,she
looks awesome! Here I am stuck with a crappy old
Fountain.....that you ordered!

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

And with those motors I hear you can hold it open all day.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

I have to say this for a warning for everyone.... the boat mentioned above MAY have had some water issues. I got a PM from an OSO member recently who went to look at this very boat-- he said it smelled like mildew like it had some water sitting in the boat at some time. Just be careful!

Congrats you guys on your boats...they are beautiful.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

epeek- I thinks its about time you traded that old 2005 X on the brand-y new 2006 model, yours is starting to look a little dated! Called Reggie today, told him I'll give him a couple of G's to fill your new race fairing with lead, it may give my (resin bucket) a bit of an edge. :D :D :D

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

XPRESS 33PP, I saw that boat when it was one year old and a few times since. It was always clean. I was told at the Miami boat show 80-82mph, but since most 500hp boats run 82+ or-, I'd say 78. Still a very nice boat. When it gets rough most will lag behind your resin bucket!

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

What and when is the Queen's Demo Race on Lake George? I love that area and am planning on bringing a boat up there sometime early summer.

As far as speed, Ed here on the board has given me more Powerplay information than I can remember, but the boat should run right around 80 + or -. He also told me some boats ran considerably faster with 496s and some "freak motors" actually got in the high 80s, almost 90. My own personal feeling on that is I've had Chevy guys tell me that GM doesn't trash aluminum blocks, so if there is a problem with the block from the factory, they have been known to bore the block out and install bigger pistons. Perhaps that is the explanation? I don't know for sure. Your boat will have the higher x dimension which Powerplay started in very late 1997, 1998 when the first low water pickup Bravo drives and Bravo One propellers came out. According to what Ed has told me, this picked the boats' top speed up almost 5 mph.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Ive been told by someone that worked at Powerplay the x dimmensions are all over the place from all the years.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Thanks for all the info. I have been in 2 brand new Fountain 35 X's with 496's and they both ran a solid 78-79 on GPS in fresh water. I don't think the Powerplay would run any faster without a stepped hull. 80 would be great but I'm not going to get my hopes up. As far as the Queens Demo Race I think its the weekend before Memoial Day weekend. I will try to get all the information tomorrow and I will pass it on. Last year I was a passanger in epeeks Fountain, we had a blast! Alot of great boats, they rented a chopper for videos & pictures - good time!

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Bob just posted all the info on the Lake George demo race in the GD poker run section, hope you can make it JROMY. :drink: :drink: :drink:

Hey thanks Xpress. Yeah I have to change to white cup holders. 19 more days and I'll be in Florida boating.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Glad I could help :D

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Hey guys, What is the weight of a 33 with HP 500's??? The PP website says 2980lbs. How could that be right?

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

I think that is the bare hull weight. I think the atual weight is right around 7,800lbs.

Re: Owners: Lets see some Powerplay Pics
 

Hey guys ..... anyone know the "scoop" on the 2002 in the classifieds from Canada ???? Looks real nice !??!?!?! :cool:
