I saw the F2 boat yesterday.

Sunday
I drove past the Pantera shop yesterday and saw the doors open, so I stopped in.
Jo and Pepe were hard at it with two other employees. They were working on the interior and the rigging. The boat looked fantastic. The guys are very determined to have the boat sea tested by mid week. They'll be running it several times this week to get seat time in the new boat.

The boat looked wonderful! The hull and deck joint is finished in gel, with no rub rail. They've really put in a lot of time on the cool custom touches as well.

I hope to catch up with them this week, and I will take my camera with me.

I saw a lot of movement on the other customers boats as well. Ron's 28/496 is right near the door, and looks to be 95-98% done. It looks just like mine.. for some reason....

Ron,
Your boat loos very nice. I wish I had my camera with me when I was there... I like the new style Pantera decals that are on the rear portion of the boat...

The boat looked to be pretty much done. It had the cockpit cover on it, so I couldn't see inside. The TP and tabs were on, but he had'nt put the drive on yet. Your boat got those nifty tabs... I forget who made them but they look very cool.
Jo said the boat was just about ready.
I'll click a couple pics if I see the boat again this week...

Coming to Ft.Laud for the race this weekend???
Planning to take delivery of the boat down here? If so, we'll have to get together on the water. There's nothing like running that boat in the ocean..

I saw the F2 today, almost done! Pepe and Jo have been working their As*# off and it looks great.

IS the race this weekend?

[Tim G.]

It certainly is this weekend. I'll bet the F2 hits the water tomorrow for some testing..
The weather has been "mierda" today. Hopefully it clears out.
