We are trying to find the location of any old Powerplay race boats that raced from 1991 back to the beginning. See thread in General Discussion, Save the Old Race Boats.

This is a stupid question but do the old cobras count.

Yes, they are very important especially if they are the 32 foot Cobra....they were pulled out of the same mold as the famous Don aronow Cary 32 called ....The Cigarette.

As far as I can recall, I don't believe Powerplay built a raceboat from 1991 on back to their start in 1987-88. Cobra/Performer did, but not PP. The first of very few PP raceboats was built in late '92 & raced in the last couple races of the '92 season. '93 was the first year of any fulltime race effort. Ed

Hey Ed,
Looks like Powerplay Racing is going to be doing waht she was originally built to do--RACE!! I just sold it and it's going to be raced in P-4 class (I believe) this coming season.
