P38
 

The p38 was a factory boat.It was not painted but gel coat with p38 logo on seats,dash etc.

I would say that is one of the other three. It has the same paint job as mine.I know for a fact my boat is 100% factory origanial paint and was not used at a driving school. And yes they are kevlar layup.It came stock with hp500 carb motors and bravo1 drives . It would run out at 83 mph. Then the prochargers were added a set of harden headers and then the xr drives. It will now run out mid to high 90's depending on the day. still not sure how to post pics any help would be welcomed.

i love that p38 , i wish i knew it was for sale a couple years ago before i dumped too much money in the motors i have now , or it would be on the chesapeaka bay now . hopefully it will be for sale again in the next couple years . its on the wish list .

Are you still running the blackhawks on yours?

Sorry, it won't be for sale anythime soon. I just got everything wrapped up at the boat shop yesterday (I hope).I want to lake test this week. Hopefully before my baby is born next week . Then I am going to mount my new a/c unit in it, and install the windshield (that has been sitting in my shop since last sept.) and I am set. BTW, I don't think they ever made a P-31. I saw that one that is for sale in Parker about six years ago being towed by an Escalade. The 5 or 6 Trainer boats that Scarab used were all yellow with corresponding numers on them (i.e. 1-5)Here is a pic of the deck I can't find any others.Also that is a grip of cash for a 31'. No step, big power or not , these days he'll be sitting on that forever. Maybe 45k max. Sorry getting so far off the P-29 subject......MIKE

My Bad, I didn't see your post Jeff about you P-31. I thought yours and mine we both just custom , but maybe they were factory boats. I wish there was a better way to trace this stuff. I don't think that anybody cares at the factory. Mike

I called wellcraft customer service and gave them the vin number. They told me it was 1 of 5 and what power & drives it was built with. And where it was shipped to from the factory. Other than that the guy i was talking to was not very forth coming with info. :D

BUB i am still running the blackhawks . everybody tells me to switch to xr's but i like the bh's just to be different . i run them to 6000 rpm's and haven't had any problems but i only have about 30 hrs with these motors and 80 hrs with the old 500 horse 427 sb's. they can be tricky around the dock sometimes in tight areas . 31 p props .

i'm pretty sure theres 2 more p29's on the chesapeake bay . 1 out of middleriver that i ran with one day late last season . i believe he told me he had 383's with 450 horse . he had a set of bravo 1's on it because he was waiting for the bh's to get back from getting redone . i heard theres one out of white crystal beach but i don't think i have seen it .

I have been thinking about a blackhawk for my 21 for some time now. Very hard to find at a good price.

I love the p-29's and looked at one 2 years ago but it was rotted to chit so i passed. I was ready to buy the one in GA untill i heard it sunk and sat for a week:eek:
