33' Powerplay Center Console

[cowisl]

Hello - does anyone have any experience with a Powerplay 33' center console? Good, bad etc? Inboard or outboard...All input would be appreciated. Thanks

[JupiterSunsation]

You guys trying to own all models Powerplay built?


Oliver (had black 38) had a 33 sportdeck with ob's that he loved.....

[cowisl]

Always thinking...

[cowisl]

Here are a few pics I found. They look real nice.

[Steve 1]

Like anything else Danny Built they were well done, ran good and were very popular with the customers.There were two open fisherman models on the 33 foot line the first was based on the old Cobra race deck.

[TCEd]

Funny, I was thinking abot starting a thread about why there are not more center console hulls with I/O's. Less maintenance and less weight since the cabin and things in it that seldom get used are gone.

I though you said it came with twins, not triplets???

[DollaBill]

OSO Steve had 2 of them. Call him

[FastDonzi]

Danny didn't skimp on anything, also he tried to not use wood unless he had to.

[GENERAL LEE]

Always thinking...


Haha, well I DAMN sure know who to call, if I ever need info on one. :cheers2:

[DollaBill]

Danny didn't skimp on anything, also he tried to not use wood unless he had to.

But he did skimp on repaying loans that would've kept PP in business:ack2::eek:

[BUIZILLA]

there is an OB one in the back of the barn at Grove Key...

Well the "Other Money" finally ran out, and everybody knows you ain't gonna make money building performance boats, some may have a good year or two or three but eventually the performance boat building money gods will strike them down. only the really good jugglers (appear) to survive any longer and they are just juggling the money, usually other peoples.

[DollaBill]

I'm well aware of the all the details of what happened.And, you're right. hi[perf boats is a lose lose deal

[Steve 1]

He had a good glass crew and the molds were flawless.

HMMMM,

Didnt you work with Danny at one point?

Details!!

In all seriousness, do you guys think the I/O version would be less desirable than an OB version? I really like the bolsters seats some of these CC's have

[cowisl]

Couple OB pics..

[Steve 1]

The IO's ran very well and the way the Bolster/Seat was done it made for a good ride ,the console came from a Two Piece Mold and had draft away from the walkway see if there is the fish bait box included it is a nice piece of work and Cool.

In the Outboard photo that looks like Danny's old Lady Linda in the back!

And One is in the PP Factory Parking area by the Race Shop.

I/O or OB?

[Team Tsunami]

I/O or OB?

A guy around here has one that he bought brand new around the time of the demise of PP. He's had it for years and loves the boat. He started with 250xs and upgraded to 300xs about a year ago. Its a very cool CC!!

[Viper31]

They are a good hull. Don't think they are self bailing though. I am a true believer in that for a center console boat.

[cowisl]

Wonder why they wouldnt be self bailing. I will have to look into that

[cowisl]

Looks like a deal to be had there!

Saw it...needs some major TLC. Also saw another one in Miami. Love the boat but need to find one that is in better shape

[Spicy]

Saw two 33's CC in St John VI this week, got pixs, when I upload pictures I will post them!!

I dont have any pics Chris but can see if he wants to sell.

[captain55]

What are the Baltimore based 2008 POWERPLAY LATITUDE 35SS from ALL STAR MARINE. Is this a chance to buy a new Powerplay CC? Captain55

[Team Tsunami]

No because PP isnt in business anymore. You can buy a new Latitude which built from the old 33 PP mold. I saw one in Miami a few years ago and it looked like a very nice CC!

[cowisl]

I dont have any pics Chris but can see if he wants to sell.

Thanks Dan!

[Spicy]

Here are two 33 that I took pictures of last week when I was in the Caribbean, the first one was moored right off the Westin which is where I stayed and the other is actually one of the rental boats that run you around to the Island bars.... It's funny how you are somewhere and you are thinking as you take the picture where and for whom you will be posting it for....

Those were expensive boats to build.

[Steve 1]

I will touch on this, I would leave sometimes late and see Dannys truck in front of the office still and he was inside a boat redoing something that a rigger did he was not happy with, I would go in and talk to him, his Reason was no boat went out that he would not own personally.

and he could not go home knowing a small piece of door trim was not 100% perfect.True story more than once!

I think the difference between the Latitude and the Powerplay is night and day. The ones I've seen at the boat shows don't have near the fit and finish and rigging that the PPlays had. The console is a box looking kind of thing, not the nice one that powerplay had, and so on. Sad graphics too(if any) to bring to multiple shows. Just because you have the molds, means nothing to me. No thanks.

[Steve 1]

OneBadInjun,
There is no debating that Powerplay was nothing but top notch from layup, rigging, and final assembly. Latitude Powerboats is doing everything possible to live up to the expectation of the performance boating community with regards to carring on the legacy of this awesome hull. The console now houses the head and fresh water shower which can be modified as per a customers request. In addition, the original Powerplay console can be manufactured and installed if desired. With regards to graphics Latitude does not attempt to hide behind the make up so to speak. We believe that every line on our boats are straight as an arrow. Graphics are a personal touch that can be added or incorporated during a custom build. The biggest selling point of the Latitude is the demo ride. The ride, handling, and tight solid finish produce a ride that will impress the most critical performance boaters. If ever in the Baltimore or Miami areas I would like you to be our guest to see for yourself. We would appreciate the opportunity. Thank you for your comments. Latitude Powerboats appreciates any and all feedback from the Performance Boating community. We use this feedback to strive to make our product better.

Sincerely,
Fred Brady

the 28' is a powerplay mold?

[Steve 1]

the 28' is a powerplay mold?

No the 28's came from the original Cobra mold blocked at 28 feet, I think there was a new 28 hull in that mold when it was sold.

[Powerplay25]

No the 28's came from the original Cobra mold blocked at 28 feet, I think there was a new 28 hull in that mold when it was sold.

Isn't the 28' a shortened version of the 33' hull?

[Steve 1]

Isn't the 28' a shortened version of the 33' hull?

Exactly,Yes from the Original 32 Cobra hull mold.

I had a thread going once upon a time on the other site called "Dans picture stash" or something like that and was posting until it got hit by the Azzhats and I stopped.

Chris Yes every bit of that operation very well documented by photos, Danny was very careful about photographing everything built there ,1000's upon 1000's of very cool photos.

I love the way the name PowerPlay came about........Dan was the chitzzz

The 28 PP never came as an open fisherman! and there were only 12 of them built.

[Allstar Marine]

northernoffshore,
Sorry didn't catch onto the question until you posted the photo of the 28' Latitude. The 28' Latitude does not have any affiliation to the former 28' Powerplay. I believe the 25' and 28' Powerplay molds were purchased by someone else during the sale.

[Steve 1]

There was no 28' PP mold that was a done with a dam insert in the PP Cobra Mold.

Steve,

I had to laugh when reading this, not sure if you meant Dam, as in bocked off, or DAMN!!!! as in you have already said this 6 times:cuss::bump:

I'm glad I have one of the 12 do you have pics of my 28 w the twin 350 mag efi's?

No, there was an removable insert made for building his 28; The plug was finished to Danny's standard and inspected by him, this was placed in the mold with the finished side facing the transom,Then it and the remaining bottom along with the transom and cutting flange of the mold were Gelcoated with tooling gelcoat and laminated like to a mold thickness.

[Steve 1]

I'm glad I have one of the 12 do you have pics of my 28 w the twin 350 mag efi's?

I know who does and will try to get PP Photos posted in a thread of it's own.

I'll let Steve1 say it :sifone:

anyone hear from Fred or Lattitude lately?

[Allstar Marine]

OneBadInjun,
Sorry for the delay on response. Team Latitude has been hard at work even in a tough economy we are striding to improve our product while paying close attention to the feedback of our client base. We are in the process of manufacturing a brand new console from scratch for our latest build of the new and improved Latitude 35SS. We have aligned ourselves with some incredible craftsmen. Not only will this boat incorporate the newly designed console the boat will utilize a stout arch designed and manufactured Dave Dave Pigoni and crew from Custom Pipe Design. Harold of Grafic Worx has designed and painted some incredible graphics on the new Latitude 35SS which highlights and extends the arrow straight lines of the Latitude. Harold stated "the Latitude is one of the nicest boats he has ever laid graphics on". I have attached a link which documents the entire build to date.
