So it was in for a repower?????


HAve you talked with Phil at all???? No ..... i have not........ considering he has ceased all contact with everybody but i have talked with Jamie on occasion , and that Sutphen , along with a 47 Apache was purchased prior to Phil taking ownership of PowerQuest when Phill & Jamie were still up in Muskegon .

Ratickle
11-20-2011, 10:18 AM

I posted some of the CraigsListings too...

on the other thread

Offshore Ginger
12-02-2011, 04:20 PM
Paul , like i posted in the other thread it most likely is the 47 Apache that phil was going to convert from Trip's to Twins , adding big power , ect , ect .

Offshore Ginger

So Paul , what time are you considering ....on paying a vist to PQ ?

Ratickle
12-05-2011, 12:08 AM
I'm planning on calling them tomorrow and see if I can get an appointment for then.

Then I'll try to set up something for later, after the sealed mold auctions, to see what is left and the situation for the on-line auctions.

Gut feel, would any of those molds be a real good candidate for a center console? That seems to be the question I get asked the most. Probably because the biggest current market appears to be the center console boats.

Offshore Ginger
12-05-2011, 09:58 AM
Paul if you can think it......or imagine the possibility of any of those hull mold's being used for a center console boat it can happen .

Paul , if i get a chance i will drop in to P.Q. today but most likely tomorrow and to tell you the truth i really think there will be a lot of people from our area that will be placing bids at this point, and what happend to the Apache ,and did anyone we know purchase it ?

01-16-2012, 06:31 PM
Both complete 525,s have been removed also

Ratickle
01-17-2012, 08:56 AM
There were rumors that those items were not really the property of Powerquest, therefore not able to be included in the auction. I've been completely unable to find out. Maybe I'll run over there late morning.

Auction is from 8:00AM today until 6:00PM tonight. We'll see how well the site works to watch on line.

Offshore Ginger

It looks like Shogren is pretty much the top bidder at this point .

Just got back.

The owner of the Aerotek was there. It did get pulled back from the auction, Phil was supposed to finish it years ago.

So did the 525's and drives for them. Plus the NXT, plus the 47' Apache.

Saw some of the guys I know, met some of the guys I've chatted on line with, amd met some new people from around the industry.

Learned some interesting stuff. Maybe it will leak out some day, who knows.....

Now we'll have to see what sells and for how much.....

I hardly pay any attention to any Repocast or Mediema auction.
Everything I have looked at or watched has always went for way too much $$
My brother has bought and sold through them and asks me quite often if I am watching.
Usually, NOPE. I just don't waste me time.
Big $$$

Offshore Ginger
01-20-2012, 05:28 PM
paul , yes you should merge these two threads, and if you go back to the Auction site you will find that Claremount has either matched or won the rights to the molds which more or less looks like he has claimed everything .....meaning Stealhead is out which also was mentioned by Denny B (on that other site) who once worked at P.Q.many years ago like Jamie mentioned.. in his last post but non the less one can only imagine what really went on these last few days behind closed doors between the two highest bidders.

Man, did some more calling today. Still no one seems to know who.


With all the molds, and all the parts and equipment in one pair of hands, it has to be a current boat builder (or a wanna-be boat builder).


Is there any current builders the line may make sense for?

a guy from michigan/florida called me yesterday and told me meidama called him because he was the last high bid on the sutphen before clarmont bid everything up. Clarmont can't/hasn't/won't pay for all they bought or is negotiating for what they want and dropping some items to come up with cash for the rest. meidama was there still yesterday waiting for people to pay and pick up theree items. This person also bought the mer 1100 sc motors that were originally in the boat.
