I wasn't complaining, just commenting on the design. And yes, I do have long arms.

I don't think you can go wrong with the Pantera or AT. Both are great rough water boats. The AT has a deeper cockpit/more freeboard and nice cabin. The Pantera has a bigger cockpit and the twin BBC option!

All I have to say is Mike let me drive his 28 with a single 496 back before he upgraded to his 37 and that 28 was one of the most fun boats I have ever driven it turns like an F1 race car. Just get someone to take you for a ride I am sure you will like it.

That is one thing I forget to mention about this boat..I have gotten so used to it. You can turn as sharp as you want, but HANG ON!!.. or you will eject passengers; this thing is on rails! I have never experienced a feeling like that...the strakes on on Active Thunder are unlike any I have seen; very sharp.

Only problem......Pat said he would never make another 28 twin & I believe ther are only 2 in existence; and we ain't sellin!
