Finally... a new boat for me.
 
It's been too long, but I will finally be back out on the water this summer.
2003 28 Pantera F1 build w/ Ateco HP500 532hp / 568ft/lb.

I want to thank a few members for their help in the process:
Here's Johnny, Team Saris (both Johnny and Jason), Wylie-Rat, El Indio and especially MikeB4.

Congrats on the new ride.

Now find a buyer for my Sutphen in your neck of the woods and I'll buy you 200 gal of gas. lol

Thanks everyone.
Steve, you know I've always liked your boat, this one just suited me better.
Now I just hope the family likes the race layout... at least it says 'badass'.

Thanks...
In fresh water its running at 70.
3500rpm has it at 47.

It will be interesting to see how it runs in salt water.

Kind of the same set up as mine with the bolster and back seat. I' sure it will work for your family.

I've had a lot of phone calls about my boat but no real offers.
I guess it's not priced aggressively enough.

Best off luck, it looks like a real beauty!
