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

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.
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

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

someone should find out what # hull that boat is so it doesn't show up for sale somewhere else and nobody will know about it .
