The sabers and the pantera are better built boats.

Really? How so? What methods and materials do they use that differentiate them from a PowerPlay?

I think he was comparing with the old Apaches.

The one PP I had the pleasure to crawl all over {Defyn gravity} was just OVER the top In all aspects.
The rigging & wiring was like nothing else I have seen !

Question For Steve
 
In these economic times there is a glut of used 36 ft Cats out there that can be bought unpowered or otherwise.

Without mentioning any specific brand , if someone bought one of these production boats and sent the hull to you to have it TUNEDwhat would you look at re the bottom that would make it better ( if anything) ??

AND could you even alter an existing hull ??

That was one of my Jobs ,I made some changes in the Bosses Cat and gave him 8 MPH after that it was a free for all the place was loaded with everything from fishing to military, some needed major surgery. I have my own ideas about how to clean up a running surface.

That guy in the White Tee Shirt is Pedro Arcea He used to build Apaches for Kramer before coming to Powerplay with his Dad, Danny always stayed on top of the materials.

Quick story: when bagging sheet goods you need perforations every 3" Minimum to allow the trapped Air and excess bonding material, priming resin and paste adhesive in the corebond systems case to pass through the sheet to the top where is gets cleaned off.

They sell perforated sheets but were out of stock only had plain unperforated and a 38 ready for core so Danny setup and drilled like a 1000 holes in each sheet.
