Have you owned a 24/7 before? If no. Just wait till you learn the boat and how good it really is. Great job!

Thanks Class!

I've never even been in one until last night. Looking forward to learning the boat.

We put 90 miles on the boat today.
Met up with the locals at Kelly's island for lunch and then cruised the day away.
so far:
boat pulls like a beast. 50 to 70 is like flipping a light switch.
We had four guys on the boat and we pushed it to 73MPH with a 26p bravo 1 prop (1.65 ratio).
I need to learn to use the trim and tabs. Probably get 80 out of it when I get it sorted.

Panteras seem to hit a wall at 80. It's more setup then HP at that point. Everything has to be perfect to break that point. The water is very important

Glad to see you got it on the water finally. The season is about over here but I would love to see it running. If you come to the Vermilion area next season let me know.

Been some time since I’ve posted here.
boat has been running great and has many outings on it as of now.

these old heavy boats really do well in the chop.
