Re: adrenaline 24

It may have even been before Magnum, But I think the Magnum was before either Pantera or Superboat with a 24' by 7' design.

Re: adrenaline 24

i dont think you will find a better ocean running rough water 24' foot boat than a pantera.it is a proven winner!!the adrenaline looks good but expensive and 69 mph with a 496 ho seems a bit off with other comparable boats in its size range.

Re: adrenaline 24

watch out for the new 24 banana being built now should be completed soon, I bet it will give any 24 a run for its money and built for the rough stuff.

I know it was not Superboat and I don't think it was Pantera either, I believe they both started building boats in the 70s.
John at Superboat did not tell me what boat he copied. He actually told me he didn't remember, but it was a boat from the 60s.
I guess this proven design lives on even with the added glitz of the 21st century... :drink:

I have heard in the past that superboat possibly may have evolved {splashed] from a 24ft P+D, not sure, some other early 24 footers that i know of , Dynamic, Excalibur, Monza, i do not know how far back the 24ft Cigarette Firefox existed, i am guessing 1979, i am sure alot of you are aware, the Activator 27, is basicly the old Excalibur 27 speedster, up here in the Detroit, lake St Clair area, the 24ft Lancer marine , became,a 24ft Aero marine which became 24ft Predator marine, last i knew there might be some 24ft Awesomes, just a little of info i have picked up over the years, my two cents
