In my opinion, if it's in great shape, its actually just a little underpriced, so, don't expect too much wiggle room.... That being said, it has been on the market a while as most people in OK have no idea what a PQ is...

I am not to farmiliar with the brand myself. I've been looking at Baja 272's and Formula 271's. Any info on how a powerquest would compare would be a big help. Will be used mostly on inland lakes and rivers, with an occasional trip out on lake erie.
What kind of speeds could I expect with a stock 502?
How does it handle ruff water?
Anything else I need to know?

Hes pry right on..65mph. It will be bigger in every aspect than the other 2 boats you mentioned. Formula is nice but the PQ will have more room in the cabin and cockpit. It will handle Lake Erie just fine. Graphics and colors aren't outdated..sharp boat. also, with regular service the black 502 will run like a top for 7-800hrs

Thanks for the replies fella's, I appreciate the amount of knowledge there is here on this site and how willing everyone is to help out.
I have been looking for a while now and have been screwed on 2 boats last year that ended up not being what I was told which put me out about $1500 in surveyor fees. Pretty much sucks putting money into something that you never get to put your hands on. Those experiences have made me gunshy, especially since the boat in question is about a 1500 mile round trip for me.
SNOPRO, I was just up in your neck of the woods last weekend. My wifes family has a house in Marblehead right next to the Crow's nest. I visited a few of the dealers and marinas while we were up there hoping to find something to my liking with not luck.
I am going to give this guy a call today and see what I can get done.
Thanks again.

Powerquest made a fantastic boat. High quality and REALLY built to handle rough water. I would take one any day of the week over a baja. I consider a formula and pq a wash in quality but formula does have the brand name which usually means you will pay more than a similar pq.
