280 Silencer???
 
I am looking at getting a 2000 PQ 280 silencer. Any one out there with this boat? I am not fimliar with Power Quest. Are you happy with it? Anything I should look out for? It has a stock 502, what kind of speed should I expect to see with that set up? I would appriciate any info on this boat.

Thanks!!

Well,65-70 on a stock 502 ain't bad.That's rollin right along on the water. PowerQuests are a well built,nicely finished boat.The quality is very good.I have a 02 and I smile everytime I'm on it. Good luck. Bob

Went at looked at it today, it was nice. It is a big 28' boat. I never been in a PQ before, they are great looking boats. Now just waiting to see what the bank has to say. If this deal goes bad, I will come to PA and take a look at yours.

Gotta be a fairing!!! Put a fairing on any PQ and you now have an instant performance boat! What a change in appearance that makes! I have a windshield myself and would like to swap, but than again I live in Michigan and the shelter is almost a must from time to time

murf 08-05-2008 08:59 PM

I took the PQ for a test drive today, what an awesome boat. Everything went through with the bank. Just have to get a survey and my mechanic to look it over and then it is all mine! I can't wait. Thanks for all the info on Powerquest.
