Default Any 28' Powerplay or 29' Phantom experts??

Hoping to be able to pull the trigger on a new toy soon, aside from the 29' Warlock world class on top of my list, there is also a 28' Powerplay with a single whippled 502 im interested in, as well as a 29' Phantom with a single 695hp N/A motor i really like. Both are very far distances, and even harder to find info on. Will be a LOTO boat, hence why im after good rough water hulls. The info im after for both of these boats is beam, deadrise, cockpit depth, and specs of that nature... Much wood in these or are they all glass layups? Any info i can get is greatly appreciated!

I know where there is a 100mph 2014 28'activator/rage for sale. One of the best ruff water boats built. Pm me and I can put you in touch with the owner. It has foam deck and sides balsa bottom wood stringers and transom. Top notch layup. One of the best I've ever seen and I've been inside a lot of high dollar junk boats...

That sounds like a hell of a boat, definately out of my price range though... The ones I'm looking at are a little older in the 25-30k range

28 PP would be a good buy if built like the 33, I would also look at 28 Saber or Pantera also... they are both well built rouger water boats

That's a bad ass video! The 28pp I'm looking at has a single 750hp whipple 502, so I'm thinking probably low 80s, i just wanna make sure its gonna be a useable day boat as far as comfort and cuddy space too. I think i can talk the old lady into it tho

The Phantom is a much better rough water boat and doesn't ride like doo doo as the PP in the video does.
