Are the pictures bad? well... they aint great.
Is there something wrong with it? Has anyone seen it?
Is it the layout?
It doesn't seem like it needs much.

TOMCEI, would you think this is a fair price? Since you know what it takes to clean up a boat. :D

I would think the paint is the main thing making buyers shy away.

Re: Still for sale...
 

To think about it, a wet sanding and buff would take that off... alot cheaper than re-gelling.

Nothing is wrong with the boat at all, it could be the drawing that is throwing everything off.b

Albert, you know the boat or been over it?
That 3A is an awsome piece.

Storm , I was in Miami last month and spoke with Jo at Pantera about this boat . He said it was real nice and the guy just never takes the time to use it . Pretty impressive drive and power for the money . Jo said he ran it years ago and it was fast .

How much could it cost to buff that pu$$y out?

Re: Still for sale...
 

not quite sure but didnt this boat go to a new owner last year, and the asking price was 69k. i remember JO saying he cvould put a half cabin in for around 5k, and it also came with a nice myco, Himes

This Pantera 28' was built originally for John Tomlinson from TNT custom rigging. The boat does not have a cabin just race bulkheads and no cockpit liner. It has a custom 3 man bolster with a simple custom rear bench that has drop outs. Johnny sold the boat to a friend of mine here in Miami in 2002 and he put very little hours on it. Motor was built by Bud Larow from the original Thunder Boat Row Hawk Marine Power. Bud works for many years now at Cigarette racing and is a great engine builder.

Gail Paik painted the custom graphics and sprayed 4-5 coats of clear.The boat is sharp in the water !!! I have seen mid 90s on GPS back in 2002.Motor idled at 800 -1000 RPM and runs on pump gas. John Tomlinson put the best parts on it . Boat has a perfect rig job.It has Latham Steering and Throttles, 3A Speedmaster drive, Auto Meter liquid filled instruments over Carbon Fiber dash panels, GPS, and 380s tabs with indicators.

For the asking price it is a Great DEAL.

Hey storm, the boat is newer than mine so the gell might be in better shape. re-gell about 5k new trailer if one doesnt come with it about 5k. The new guages ,shifter and cosmetic up grades another 3 or 4k

The excitement , the thrills and rush of 80-90mph.
and the joy of calling it yours....PRICELESS :D

Re: Still for sale...
 

I think the lack of a cabin and 3 man bolster set up is throwing everyone off. This is a GREAT deal. If I had not bought a new house recently I would be all over this one. If they drop it much more I may have to buy it even though I shouldn't :eek:

Re: Still for sale...
 

Tom, I'm just thinking what yours cost, and what you're putting into it.
Nothing wrong there, just pointing out what a deal this is.
I know its not a pleasure cockpit, but sometimes a cabin is just a place to hang some fenders and lifejackets.
Jo, I know why this boat has not sold yet...
cuz I ain't in the market. :(

And now that I know the paint was done by Gail(of apache fame), I wouldn't have the heart to undo it.
