Default Powerplay history

Not new to the board but as you can see from my post count that I am basically a lurker b/c I am primarily a fisherman and don't have a go-fast,(yet). Therefore I don't have the wealth of knowledge many here have. It seems that most agree that they were great boats. I have never seen a thread about the Powerplay history and it's demise but people have alluded that it ended in a spectacular "Pantera, Apache" fashion. I would love to hear about the history from some who were there.

Didn’t Powerplay become, or get absorbed by Powerquest?

2 different Powerplay companies. One changed its name to Powerquest.

Did you read the Sticky? Powerplay (one word) was the original, then Power Play started in MI and got sued by Powerplay and changed their name to Power Quest.

I guess I'll just go straight to Steve Koss and Richie Powers to find out. Seems not many are interested or maybe I have failed to sufficiently articulate my question as it obviously has even upset someone.
