Default 300 Revenge vs 280 Silencer

Hi guys,
Would anyone know where the difference is with the extra 2 feet on the Revenge? I see that the engine bay is much longer but is there anywhere else that benefited.
Is the cuddy any longer or deeper?
I have never seen a Revenge in person and am thinking of moving up in size.
Any feedback would be great.
Thanks,

I have a Revenge and they are like all the other PQs, great boats!the 30 rides very nice and does very well in the rough stuff,

actually theres more than 2 feet difference ,the transom is about 8 inches from the end of the deck,Id say theres about 3 1/2 feet difference,

Now as my friends tell me its a TALLLLL 30,which it is, but when your in it you feel secure.

Very nice boat!!!
I hear you.....we absolutely love our Powerquest 280!!!
We were thinking of moving up in size and the Revenge would seem like a really good move.
Our 280 has the Riptide graphics and we would like to find a Revenge with the same graphics if possible.
Any idea what the boat weights with big blocks and full of fuel??
Thanks....

Yeah thats heavy......I weighed the 280 on the trailer with a full load of fuel and it came in at 7460 lbs....
I'm sure I could still put another 30 gallons in it so theres more weight yet.....
Did they ever make a Revenge with 525s ??

Hey boatnt, dont mean to smack you with a bunch of questions but curious what kind of power is in your revenge? How fast is it and where do you usually boat? I really like the revenge alot but I was curious how it handled lake michigan water. The 290 PQ I used to have was pretty good in a small chop and boat wakes but my 280 silencer I have now rides better in rough stuff. I do miss having the twins (except when you have to work on it). I was considering stepping up to a 34 but I dont think it would be very trailer friendly on a regular basis. thanks in advance.
