YOU CAN WALK INTO ANY DEALERSHIP TODAY AND HAVE ONE TOMOROW. CUSTOM BOAT MEANS MORE MONEY AND TIME FOR THE SAME PRODUCT.
I know you have your problems but that statement is a crock of chit

Lets see what a mass produced boat looks like after a beating like goumada took in Point without a stress crack or like mine after Atlantic City, Pt Pleasant, and New York and it still looks new.
Do this with a boat off the showroom and you'll be picking up the pieces.
I have been racing this boat since I had it built in 2000 and have been in this position many times and this boat has held together beautifully. If anyone remembers Daytona 2001 I flew more than the Concord, broke a solid race motormount, had the engine shift 4 inces forward, ruptured a kidney, and didn't get a single stress crack

Domz will be boating in 3-4 days in his custom made 28' Pantera and I do hope Chuck moves on.

I am sending you those drawings in the morning.

Say hi to the Family.

I judge you on not how you treat me but on how you treat my friends.

Hmmmmm.....
I've got stress cracks and have never been in water like that in my boat.
It does ride good though

Hi Ron,

Go ahead and post a picture of your Gelcoat stress crack so we can see where its at and take care of it for you. If you launch a boat out in rough water at high speed and take a hard landing a small flex in the gelcoat can occur in any Hi- Performance boat.After 30 years of building these boats and running them hard in nasty water we know on where to reinforce the most critical areas.

How you throttle the boat makes a huge difference on how much abuse a boat will take in rough water.If you throttle right on the money and keep your forward momentum going from wave to wave it will decrease the boat pounding allot.

Also landing hard on its side while turning in rough water is another way to give extra punishment to the boat.

Let me know if we can take care of it. Go ahead and run it hard !!!

Sometimes I think you and a few other (3-4) ball brakers here on OSO that dont know us or ever purchased a Pantera or sat your ass in one just try and enjoy yourselfs trying to just instigate us all the time.

I have never met you or spoken to you but I hope I do have that chance soon.

Wow.......2.7 boats a month. That is amazing when it takes >2 years to build one. That means that there are about 64 hulls around the shop in various states of completion on the assembly line. LOL WAFJ!!!
