I'd go for the 28apache in the classifieds w/ 525.
Dont know of any single pantera's for sale.
Plus the claymates would dig that apache paint.

Also, the 28 active thunder would be a good choice, 99k in the classifieds.

$99K!!! My friend will sell me his 1990 29-foot Fountain for $40K. It has big engines (twins) and will probably go 80.

I am looking for a newer boat (1995 or later) with a single engine for under $40K. I don't need to go fast, just smooth.

I don't need to go fast now. It's easier to add speed to an existing boat. It's tough to add length.

Like I tell all of the Claymates... Keep 'em cumming!
Extreme is not 'known"???? Not a mass produced production but a true custom built boat. Check out the past years of World Champion and National wins on the APBA/SBI and OSS circuts. Extreme built race boats first, then pleasure boats and the pleasure boats are built to the same spec's as the race boats !!! Even on the race conditions, there has never been an Extreme De-Lam or Break !!!! Just for your info.... Dave

Active Thunder or Pantera.

The AT has the biggest cabin. The Pantera has the biggest sundeck because of how the swim platform is set up.

Problem is that you won't find either for under 40k, at least not if you want an engine it.
