350/260 alphas. All stock proably runs 60 ish. Drives were just done in it. Im redoing the seats coushins for the couch and padding tonigh along with fuel pumps and dropping carpet down in the cabing. Remaking the step in the cabing due to some one "misplacing" it and new bilge pumps.

Nice, One of my favorite boats, and Simple, 260's with Alphas, reliable, and cheap to fix. If I coulda found one that clean when I got the Pantera I would have bought it.

Haha ill take the pantera for it=0) i actually didnt want to buy twins as my play around boat. But it was so clean and freshwater i couldnt pass it up. I really wanted a 24x7 with a bbc/bravo set up or trs. But it sold because he was offered more cash after we had a deal i even said id sent a deposi he said na just pay full when you get here. Guess not. But im not upset.

Ive never heard anything bad about a pantera so thats a plus. Ah if i dont sell it trade it ill run it the rest of the summer. Like I said a bit big and extra engine to what i was truely looking for but boat was to clean to pass up.

I am not really ready to part with the Pantera just yet, it is economical to run, and even though it only runs 60, it feels like your doing 80

Here is a few videos of it running off palm beach, you can see what the narrow beam does, should run better with the new transom, solid mounts, and probably getting a bracket with swim platform next week
