I've never been that way and it sounds like it would be a nice ride, I'll have to look into this a bit more.
Is there a lot of big open water riding or is there sheltered small vessel routes??

Drock78 02-25-2014 07:40 PM

its mainly open lake michigan Mike. There are harbors along the way to duck into.

verbi69 02-25-2014 08:14 PM

Thanks Derek, sounds like it could be a very big gamble....

oh I am sure we could find some big water for you to run you Avenger,come on down first round on me then AJ takes over.

Drock78 03-19-2014 02:45 AM

Starting to put the fun run together and trying to get an idea of how many will be attending. There's an event post on the PQ boat owners Facebook page but I know that not everyone is on there.

MindBLOWER 03-19-2014 07:09 AM

Maybe we could create a running list. Copy an paste this list when replying. Please include screen name, person count/real names, boat type.

1. MindBLOWER, 2 people, 280 Silencer
2.

4.
5.

No issues with this list, but I was thinking to keep a master copy in excel and if anybody from out of town is coming I can help to arrange things for them as I live here in Spring Lake... No Problem to do this at all.. My thought was to get an idea what boat, how many people and contact information so that when we get close to ordering some t-shirts, etc.. it will be quick to get in touch with people how to pay/etc... What do you think... I would make the list and I can get the total Boat/People Count... I'll need this for the restaurant and really want to know how many boats we need to manage to tie up in Holland... I want to make sure that this goes smooth and if I need or someone needs some help, they can ask any questions and get a quick reply...

If you e-mail me at [email protected]

Red Stripe 03-20-2014 07:24 PM

Interested in joining in on this fun run! Sounds like a blast!

Funhoffs 03-20-2014 07:55 PM

Red Stripe... With the Slight Warm up in the weather, it is actually feeling like Spring. The Grand River has been melting here in Grand Haven and looking like the ice will finally thaw....

Send me some info if you could.. From my notes, I am expecting 21 PQ's so far, and 1 Active Thunder (Derek).... So Honestly, It sounds like a Great Time.... With some of the people that I'm not aware of coming, clearly the number will increase but trying to keep track....

2.FunHoffs,3 people,280 Silencer

Red Stripe 03-21-2014 03:54 PM

I was noticing the thaw today when I crossed the drawbridge in G.H. on the way home from work. I just bought my 240 in the fall after 4 long boatless years. I loved my last boat (88 230 Conquest) and the room on the 240 SX reminds me of the Conquest just with updated styling.

There will be at least 2 of us on the run, probably 3 though. I can message you if you need more detailed info. Since we are local, we will be trailering into GH and not getting a slip.

check300 03-22-2014 07:22 AM

Would an orphan Checkmate be welcomed? Sounds like a fun event.

Drock78 03-22-2014 07:47 AM

Heck yes Bill, Id love to see your Checkmate. Always loved that boat.

MindBLOWER 03-22-2014 02:43 PM

I was kind of wondering that about the Checkmate Owners Rally on Cumberland. Never made it when I had my Checkmate, and now own a different brand.
Looks like there is a Superboat and a Stiletto going.

All boats are welcome to the rally on LC. You should plan on it.

fantastixvoyage 03-26-2014 02:58 PM

I may show up but it will be a phantom rather than a powerquest. Hope to do some boating out that way this year.

Funhoffs 07-13-2014 08:56 PM

Hey Everyone... Just an update... 1 month away.. I called Boatwerks and they are all Set... Just keeping track who all will be coming, how many boats and how many people... Please let me know if you are going to make it so I can keep the numbers up to date.. So far, 12 staying in Grand Haven on Saturday Night and 19-23 boats should be there... Spread the word and we will have a fun safe day out on the lake... any questions, please let me know - [email protected]

Thanks - Corey

jdos 07-13-2014 10:32 PM

Corey,

gonna try and make it in a new 28 saber. also, the first power play built a 185xlt may be running in it. I hope Mike makes it in his 380, the owner of the 185 would like to look at it.

Drock78 07-14-2014 06:10 AM

Mike sold his 380 last week Jamie. Not sure who the new owner is.

Funhoffs 07-15-2014 06:58 PM

That would have been nice to see Mike's Boat... I will try to talk to a few guys at the Wharf in Grand Haven that have Avenger's so that we have something to follow to Holland.. One has twin 500 EFI's so I'm sure that will be something to lead the Pack...

AJ POWERPLAY 07-15-2014 09:36 PM

Im going to try and make it... 33 powerplay just not the holland power play, 4 people

Funhoffs 07-15-2014 10:12 PM

Awesome... Should be fun to see your PowerPlay in Action... I think your friends with the Revenge with Yellow Flames Right, Is he coming down? Hey Todd Roman...... I heard you sold your old Legend.. You pickup a new Boat.. If so you coming and what is it?

PROWRENCH 07-16-2014 06:55 AM

A good possibility, but not for 100% sure

I picked up an '03 30' Revenge. Haven't had much wheel time yet though, my Dad's been in the hospital, but I hope to make it out for the run!

AJ POWERPLAY 07-16-2014 10:13 AM

I almost bought that boat in 2012 off a guy in Kentucky, great looking boat!

PROWRENCH 07-16-2014 12:45 PM

It does look great, but where are your flames hiding?:lolhit:

This boat was being built when my Vyper was being finished. Have pics of it from the PQ factory being painted. Small world.

I'm not sure on the build number of other Revenges', but this boat spent the first 8 or 9 years here in Michigan. It still had a MI plate on the trailer when I picked it up from Kentucky , but Kentucky's watercraft registration. It's good to have it back home here in Michigan.
I guess they painted 3 Revenges with these graphics, one blue, one yellow and one red. It would be great to see all 3 in Grand Haven next month.
Hey Pwraddr, could you post or PM me those pics?

PROWRENCH 07-17-2014 02:46 PM

Interesting stuff. I can only wonder where the 300's are, you just don't see them for sale very often. There aren't that many I don't think, the build # on mine is 50 something and most likely very near the end.
It must feel pretty cool to be #1:thankyouthankyou:, because it's cool just to own a 300:ernaehrung004:

AJ POWERPLAY 07-17-2014 03:07 PM

The purple/yellow one has a fairing I think, not sure about the red one, I saw limited pictures of it when I was looking heavy into getting a 300. I think I have them saved somewhere but who knows where the hell that would be. The guy told me yours runs 80 with the HO's.

78ranger jet 07-20-2014 09:34 AM

We will be coming with our 96 257 can't wait.

Drock78 07-25-2014 03:38 AM

Ok folks..we are trying to get this thing pinned down. If you are coming to the PQ run please post here OR Facebook. Not on both please. We are trying to get an accurate count to lock in plans.

The other 2 are in the Grand Haven area. If this is the first Revenge, is hin actually 001?

I've never seen the red one and the last time I saw the yellow one, which has the windscreen, was in the Lake of the Ozarks and I boat out of the Grand Haven port. I'm not sure on build numbers as mine reads PPN30017.

venmous28 07-29-2014 09:07 PM

The yellow one I've seen has a windshield with purple.

So, yours should be the 17th 300 hull.

Funhoffs 07-29-2014 09:59 PM

Quick Update... As of Today, 30 100% Confirmed will be here, expectation is almost 40 by the Run... so Far 27/30 are Powequests...

That is the yellow one I saw AJ, and the red one may or may not exist. They must have gotten our trailers mixed up though.
