Lofty , was this an older boat with a trs set up that you are converting to a Konrad , or a new hull that you are completing ? Good luck , this will be the first Pantera with a Konrad that I know of , let us know how she runs .

Himes, this boat's been in the Bay Area for years. Give me a call (925.952.4240) it'll be in the shop for a while. We're doing alot of work to her.

talon25, this is an old TRS boat. Should be a great little ride with the Konrad. It'll be one of many Konrad boats we've now rigged in the Bay Area.

IRONMAN, this is a single 28. It's an 89'... I think. It's got a 572cid with a B&M and intercooler. Not sure on the HP but we'll be talking with the engine builder about freshening up next week so I'll get some good numbers then.

We've done twin Konrad conversions but not to a Pantera.

Was that '89 a twin that was converted to a single (like mine was)? I don't think that Pantera started making the 28 as a single until the early 90's.

duunoit, I was going to ask about the 6 half moons in your engine bay but now I understand. Pantera must have made a few singles in the 80's , I just got one. It is amazing how many boat hulls were so far ahead of propelsion system designs of their time. Pantera, Cigarette, Shadow,Formula, Donzi, Scarabs, .etc...

I wondered the same thing when I first started looking at it. I was emailing Pepe about it and he said that he had an old picture of it. When he sent it, I was thinkging that's not the boat I'm looking at... then I found out a little more.
