I has a 78, 24 Pantera.Same boat as Kean. Ran great w/ HP465. Built like a brick chit house.

Ok this is Wazzup throwing in here. 1550 Sterling in P1 till you get a handle on it. Then step up. Only kidding, P5 you need to run 70-72. 500 to 550 hp would be perfect. You Need a revlimiter to run the class, and external steering. Call me I'll give you all the info you need Smitty 732 920 3945

Smitty
I thought all F-1 boats are P-4. A 24 Pantera with a 500 will run 80. This should be a P-4 boat according to the rules. Happy Holidays.

Thanks for all the help, As I continue to build this boat I'm sure i'll have plenty of questions. Smitty I will definetly be in touch with you, Your pretty much in my back yard. How far are you from Mystic Islands, I'm in the process of buying waterfront down there. Bye the way congrats to the WAZZUP team for an awsome year

Not a 79 conventional vee. My boat ran 74 with 520 dynoed hp before adding weight. They are very heavy little boats

Thanks Scotty, I was going to answere that one. But figured they'd say I was nutz. Those Pantara's are a little hard to push. Real easy to fly though.
