Pantera 28.
Just sold a Donzi 28ZX with 350 mags.
Not a bad riding boat but not like others in this group. 70mph with 350 mags and
75 with scorpions. I've read they tend to chine walk with higher power.
The Pantera is a bunch more fun to drive in rough water even with a single. Tends to cut the waves and not smack through as much. More comfortable at higher speeds in very rough water. Feels like you could never damage it in any conditions. The Donzi didn't feel that way
but I liked that boat as well.
The 350mag/Bravo combination is undestructable.

In response to Todd35's first post. This person obviously has no idea of what a 28' Saber is or what it can do. Powerboat Magazine thought enough of this boat to award it "Outstanding Offshore Performance" sometime in the last ten years.
I guess my no-name 27' Activator isn't worth crap either.

First of all..why would anyone want to buy a 28' Saber, and take a bath on it, when you turn around and try and sell a "no-name" brand boat???
My advice to you, is to buy something that is going to hold it's value for more than a year. Unless you can get it for $20K with 500hp's, because that is what the last one I heard went for (buzzin bye)

You just broke the #1 rule for ever having any credibility. I would tell ya about Dan's boat and it's value but, you ain't worth it.

By the way, how much does a 28' saber cost? or a 41' cost?
Please do not be made I do not want to hurt your Feelings.......
