Hi Rick,

Once you decide on the design you would like to go with I can have our Graphic designer clean up your design for you and even have the graphic done for you in Vinyl. I will tell him to treat you fair $$$.

Sometimes our customers sketch out on paper a design to give us a rough idea on what they want to have done for graphics on their Pantera and then our Graphic designer really gives them a few new ideas ( drawings ) to work from.

Hope to have you as a Pantera owner soon.

Regards,

JO

Take Jo up on his offer to use his designer, I did and all I sent Jo was a pic of a black cat outstanding work by them.

Thanks Jo,

Proud to be a Pantera Owner, I have wanted one ever since my first ride on Tim's.

So, do YOU like it???

Can those lighning bolts be done in Vinyl?? We were going to airbrush that, and do the rest in vinyl.

I looked the boat over well, and couldnt find any rot, there are some stress cracks that extend from the vent in the side of the deck, down to the Hull/Deck joint area, I am going to grind them out, and epoxy them, I was considering glassing in the 2 forward ones, since it is an outboard, does it really need 4 vents?? Also I was considering glassing all 4 vents in, and recutting the rear ones with a few round holes, and covering a newer style vent(eddie Marine, and Livorsi has them), figured it would be harder for a crack to start, if there were no corners. There is also some scrapes and dings on the bttom, which is going to be the hardest part for me, I have painted several boats, andeven more cars, so paint is not a problem, but getting it up on stands, and working underneath may be, any suggestions. Oh, and the ouboard runs good, and has good compression, I am going to run it until I get bored(probably about a week

), then upgrade to a bigger single outboard, should I invest in a bracket?? I have heard 18" setback, is that correct??

It is going to take me some time, I am going to redo EVERYTHING!!!

Congrats on your deal. Seemed like something was going on in the background. Last time we saw pics of the boat on here it was getting some restro work on it. What are your plans with the 24?

About the your current boat of yours, you may be able to trade it easier for some good cash and a second outboard. Would be pretty scary with twins.

Like to see it when you get it up to Boca.

Like the surprise!! We'll have to boat on the West Coast this winter. B-Stubb will show us some good spots. Already got the puppies flashed and can't wait for further adventures. Never knew my Pantera would be a puppy magnet!!
