PowerPlay and Powerquest are two completely different companies. Powerquest named their company Powerplay originally not knowing Powerplay was already a name. They had to change their name to powerquest because of this. The boats were never the same.

That “name change” was instigated by the Michigan Company who filed the 1st TM®, Danny was hard headed in his youth, wanting that name whose genesis is from hockey. The original Michigan Company was happy to settle the suit THEY initiated for a cash payment from Danny who early in his boat manufacturing ”career” was a bit hard headed with deep pockets (initially) that I do’t believe there’s any dispute the $’s origin. (my bf recalls it as $100,000.00 but admits it was over 40 years ago & his memory may be incorrect but either spot on or slightly off). CC
