got rid of my 24 banana a few years ago..going to start looking for a 28 pantera with a single big block bravo setup. Right now thinking of something that needs work..hopefully under 25k. those ones on e-bay look like they need a little too much for me. Im probably out of luck unless i want to spend more but ill try. Thanks for any info Mike

Take your time, overlook the cosmetics and get a sound hull. Anything can be painted, and cleaned up and new vinyl is cheap compared to replacing stringers or a transom.

Tooslow there is a guy on this board (Bruce Seroff) that has a very nice 28 Pantera race boat for sale in that price range. I think he is part of the Jersey Boys. They have a web site with pictures of the boat there and pictures around this board of the boat if you do a search. He will most likely see this and chime in. Good luck finding one.

Bruce`s boat is flawless, all you need is to transfer the title......
Call Bruce 908-413-5470 ......

You can see pictures of bruce's boat in the Swap Shop section
@ the bottom of this page. I can tell you from experiance that
a 28 single or any decant 28 for that matter will be extremely hard to find in that price range. Bruce's boat is alot of boat for the money.

Mike 25k gets you a complete boat with XR drive , on a trailer with brand new Goodyear tires. less motor or exhaust.

hello tooslow, if you decide to spend more money for a complete, boat, twin engine, mine is in immaculate shape, never painted ,covered or cobbled up, like some boats i have seen in the classifieds and ready to fly, in the classifieds, freshwateronly 28, cruise 50-60mph, WOT94MPH, you can have it for $48.000 firm,low, low hours i will hook you up with the original owner from traverse city michigan, never been in salt water
