Looking to buy a 34 or 38, any info?
 
Im looking for a 2002 or newer 34 or more likely a 38 powerquest. Anybody know any of the ones for sales owners, or have any input on something that isnt listed in the classifieds or on the typical boattrader, yacht world websites that I wouldnt already have looked at.

boatnt 07-11-2011 02:33 PM

lowbidr 07-11-2011 02:42 PM

Depends on the boat. Open to all suggestions or input.

Wow, I guess thats why listing says new interior

lowbidr 07-12-2011 08:03 AM

Yeah the only thing is the 03 has pushing 600 hours, a broken hatch, and three 2-3" fiberglass scrapes on swim platform. No trailer. Other than that nice boat.

BigBoater 07-12-2011 08:16 AM

Get a fountain, or Baja.... Assuming you want a go fast

lowbidr 07-12-2011 08:58 AM

I like the powerquest look, and cabin. I dont care about a few mph better out of the other manufacturers. I would take the cabin room over that any day just my opinions. 10 years ago GO FAST, now look good and be comfertable.

No one who is smart enough to be looking at a Powerquest 380 will ever be in a Baja!

Well there big boater, I would run ANY baja with the same power, and have. And yet have not lost to them. As far as a fountain, they are fast, but I want room, you see I am taller then 5'4" and can actually see over my fairing. Now that being said people have there own opinion, but as for me I would never own either:sport009:

This one is still on ebay...at least well equipped, a/c, macerator, hot & cold water, shower, platform shower...cockpit does look weathered though. Could it be a great boat at the price and some tlc?

Same as us.....10 days on the boat, just got back Friday.
The room is awesome, we really enjoyed having the air on while at the dock!

lowbidr 08-30-2011 08:49 PM

Havent bought yet, STILL LOOKING
I really like the 03 in the classifieds but hes too much $. Nice boat though.

Main Street:
I called on that one a couple months ago and he said it wasnt for sale anymore because the owner wasnt negotiable and owner was extremely high on price for that boat.

boatnt 08-31-2011 07:07 AM

what do you think a nice 03 380 is worth???

PROWRENCH 08-31-2011 12:29 PM

Nice looking low-hour 02 380 in detroit craigslist for $100k

That boat is dirty worth 70-75k

His hour meter is unplugged too.

This is the one that skipper buds has been advertising forever.

A normal one 80-85k, with low hours, good motors, All Options, with nice trailer.

The classifieds one 90-95k would be a fair price, it has everything with extras, but still is a 9 year old 275+ hour boat. No top end refresh has been done either, so bam another 3500 you gotta spend very soon.

AJ POWERPLAY 09-01-2011 10:54 AM

One just popped up on GrandRapids Craigslist... Check it out

sun28int1995 09-01-2011 11:40 AM

Anyone have any info on the 38 that just showed up on Craigslist in Grand Rapids? Has to have been re-powered with the 496's. Wonder if the hull has been re-worked on this one?

lowbidr 09-01-2011 04:48 PM

Saw the one on gr Craigslist the other day, its a 340-vyper, overpriced ,too old for me, and underpowered, nice looking tho.

There was a 99 380 on there too but not looking at that old. Thanks guys

Vyper340 09-08-2011 07:47 AM

I have a perfect 2002 with 496HO's and only 240 hours. Dry stored indoors always and too many options to list. PM me if you're interested.
