New Pantera 28 single Cobra Power Pics. "Richies"

[JO - PANTERABOATS]

Just tested this new Pantera 28' Single that will be racing in P5 class owned by Mike Berg. Boat is powered by a single Cobra power.Boat ran awesome today!!!

Mike and I tested it out in the Ocean and test conditions could not of been better.There was a storm approaching which kicked the Ocean up to real nasty 5 footers coming from all different directions.I could run 70 MPH out in the Ocean with more in it. Mike is dialed in for P5 class now.Boat interior is solid White with Blue Pantera embroidery and blue bezels. We upgraded the throttle to a Polished Billett Livorsi Marine. We went with a Blue Sea Strainer in the engine room that matched the motor.I will let Mike post on his thoughts of the ride and handling of his new Pantera 28'. We put a big smile in his face as you can see in the picture.

Boat ran top end much faster than we expected.The Cobra Motor ran strong and idled at 800 RPM all day long on pump gas.

P5-28 will be a front runner in P5 class in the very near future.

Regards,

Jo - Pantera

mike , how did you like the performance of the cobra motor ? i have been considering the new mercuruiser 600 SC on a 28' single like yours but jo told me he would let me know on your boats performance so i can take into consideration. boat really looked good when i saw it at the factory 2 weeks ago , but i must say it looks even better in the water . i would of liked to have been out on that boat ride with jo on the wheel.good luck with it , beautiful pantera 28' you got there.
