I would like to thank Pepe, Jo, Linda and especially Barbara for all their help they have given me in aquiring this boat. I am extremely happy to be an owner of a Pantera. Right now I would not have it any other way.
I would also like to thank a few OSO members for their expertise and opinions, from which I have learned greatly from (and still am). You know who you are.

All I can say is, great days to come!

Stormrider,
As the "seniors" (Pantera owners that is) have said to me: "welcome to the Pantera family"!
The business end looks very similar to my new addition. Looks good. What year and can you give us the specs?

It has a 454 Magnum 365hp.
Full hydraulic Marine Machine steering.
Drive shower. K planes. Ya know... the usual stuff.

I can't exactly remember the prop, but she ran strong...
on the speedo 70mph at 4950rpm with the drive tucked in and tabs up. This is my 1st HP boat. I can see I've got some learning to do. It sure is different from the 40ft twin diesel express sport-fisherman I'm used to driving.

The boat is in really nice shape and just needs a little TLC. She'll be up on the LI sound this summer.

Georges, I talked to David about your boat.
I remember loving it before Albert put it up for sale.
Does it have a back bench? I remember it just
being a 2 man bolster setup.
