New to me PQ
 

I picked up this 2002 340 Vyper last Summer, absolutely love the boat. After posting some of these pics in the wrong owner’s forum a PQ owner encouraged a repost in the correct forum, here you go!

Sounds good!

Nice boat. Love them Powerquest.
sounds like someone put some work in those engines.

Yes indeed!

SecondWind,

Sweet ride. Sounds awesome. What's it got for power?

Ever make it to Cumberland? We haven't organized anything (yet), there's quite a few of us down there.

Thanks. Brad.

Yes I'm a big fan of Lake Cumberland. We used to rent a house there for a week in the Summer. Let me know if something gets planned. The boat has Tall Deck 588s w/ 10:1 compression. They hustle this boat right along. Here's a pick of the old setup at Conley Bottom.

SecondWind,

I'm trying to get my wife to spearhead a Cumberland meetup on FB. I don't InstaGoogleTwitterFace anything, so it'll have to be her.

If you ever decide to wander down there again, hit me up. It doesn't take much to convince us to head down. We have a place there.

Thanks. Brad.

Congrats
Very nice looking
Enjoy

Owned a 290 and a 380 PQ. Great boats.

Hit me up if you need a fender b!tch at Clinton this year. :D :ernaehrung004:

Awesome Vyper. Previous owner did some really cool updates to it. You grabbed a good one!

Name should be arriving by the end of the week!

SecondWind,

Where you gonna put it?

This is the only place I could find. I had a local vinyl shop use the original font from the PQ "signature", and he had to create the letters that weren't in the signature to finish it up.

SecondWind,

Looks good. For the record, the vinyl shop should be able to cut you one that will follow the curvature of that surface. I know they did with mine, although they had it on site and made a template that they scanned, then arced the text to fit.

Still working on the wife for the meetup on Cumberland.


Thanks. Brad.

I like how the name doesn’t perfectly follow the curvature. Semi-custom is the essence of the brand:ernaehrung004:

SecondWind,

Touche.... :ernaehrung004:

Thanks. Brad.

congrats Brad!

I'm contemplating selling the Vyper if anyone is interested. It's an awesome boat with plenty of room and power for the performance enthusiast. I want a cat.

Ran this boat a lot this year. The powertrain combo on this boat is perfect. The only thing I've had to replace so far is the port side starter. Trailer got a lot of TLC this year, new brakes, bearings, wheels/tires and two new rotors.

What's it run now that you have it closer to sea level?

95mph with B1 30s (came with the boat), 98mph with B1 32s. I’ve kept the 32s on all year because really no downside unless the boat is loaded with fuel and passengers (6 or more) they have a tendency to blowout while planing.

Love the sound of this boat at all rpms!!!

Does anyone know how to delete Thumbnails? I somehow attached two screen shots on accident scrolling through my camera roll🤦🏻‍♂️

Done

Thank you SpeedGirl!
