When I was in the market for a 24 foot performance boat, I started asking about the Jaws.

Couldn't find anybody that had anything good to say about the boat so I went for a different make.

I would call that number that somebody offered and visit their shop.

I am sure someone has one out there that is nice, or if Jaws is still in business then they must have improved their quality, but when I was out looking for a boat for me I looked at two Jaws 24's. One an 1989 and the other a 91 or 92. Both had severe stress cracks in the gel. One even had an arch on it that was totally crazed. I stopped looking at any, regardless of the price because of the condition of the two that I had seen. Go with the Pantera24. Will save in the long run as your resale with hold up. I would have bought a Pantera, had I found one, but did not find one that was a project as I was limited in my budget. Had I been on OSO at the time, maybe that would have been different as I see several excellant turn key examples offered here.

Good luck in your hunt

We must have the one nice one
 

We must have the one nice one. We have a 24' Jaws fron 1989. We are the 3rd owner and the 1st owner raced it if anyone knows about it. We run it on the Chesapeake. If you have ever seen a bright orange boat, its us. Take a look at some videos and stuff here (there aren't any yet because it is still pretty cold up north) http://www.youtube.com/FandRRacing

great hull and great running boats - check out the opa forum for the rebuild of our new P5 race boat 24 Jaws

LOL... Great pic!

I grew up on a 24 Jaws and would love to own one if I could afford it. They are still made the old school way and I know the owner personally. Here is a link to their site

I own a 1980 24 ft. Jaws Super Sport. I love the boat and seeing that I still have it must say something for the boat. It has much more cockpit room then an old 24 ft. Pantera. It has more height in the cabin the an older 24 ft. Pantera. I love the ride for a little boat adn is very good in the rough stuff. Mind you I don't beat it, as I have to respect it's age but I always thought that it had a lot of similarities to an Activator but that is my opinion. I really love the lines of the boat and people I have talked to can't beleive that it is 31 years old. It is slow compared to today's boats but is great on gas and gets you to point B from point A, just a little slower but no payments. I consider it Old School.

If you go to Boating By Region, Great Lakes and Canada. Go to page 12 and scroll down to "Motor City Fun Run"and click on then go to page 6. On page 6, go to post 53 and the bottom picture is of my Jaws (Blue and Yellow) and if you go to post 58, it is in the youtube video.
