Re: Any info on this 24
I have been talking to the sales person Frank, I sent someone to go see the boat last Saturday12-11 They said it needed to be cleaned up and some little odds & ends had to be fixed. I was ready to make the trip to Miami tomorrow when I asked frank is it to cold for a sea trial and he said no, OK then I will see you tomorrow.Then 5min later he calls back to tell me about the alternator belt is chaffing not lined up???
his boss also said NO SEA TRIAL TILL THE DEAL IS DONE. So here I sit waiting for Frank to call.No test ,No buy!

Definitely don't fly down if they are not ready for you.
I did it a year ago, and I had all my ducks lined up. They still f'd up the paperwork and made me wait around for an extra 2 hrs.
If it was warm here in NY I'd take you for a ride in mine, regardless if it was for sale or not.
Have you ever been in a 24 Pantera?

The boat is owned by a customer that I know named Tony here in South Miami.
The trim tabs need to be fixed since this boat had the 110 S model Mercury K-planes installed that had Electric motors and Salt Water got to them and locked them up.
This boat was powered when delivered by us with a single 7.4 MPI 310 HP Mercruiser and would top out at 67 MPH when new.I drove the boat a few months ago at Eliott Key and could get right around 60 - 62 MPH on GPS. The motor got freshened up and a few modifications were done to it to increase the power and apparently the computer was not re-programmed correctly.It is not running 100 percent right now.My customer was lookin into it and might of been taken care of already.
The interior and rigging seemed to still be in fairly good shape.The back seat could use a re-wrap.
We delivered this boat in the Summer of 1998 and it is a 1999 model.
This picture I have attached was taken by me on the way back from Elliott Key.Tony is a very nice guy.
If anyone needs more info. on this boat just let me know.
Regards,
JO

Re: Any info on this 24
I do not know why.
I ran the boat a few months ago and the drive trim pump needed to be replaced because it would not hold the drive out when trimmed.The boat ran around 60-62 MPH on GPS with both of us on the board.The K Plane 110 S model Trim Tabs need to get the Electric motors fixed or replaced since they were not working at the time. The back seat can use a re-wrap in the future but overall the boat is in good condition.
These few minor things might of been fixed by now.
Tony - the owner is a very nice guy.I am sure he could get you out for a sea trial if you are ready to buy.If you need anything for the boat just give me a call or email me.
