Re: Morgan's 28
Hey Guy's ,
Thanks for all the compliments on the boat . I made it back to NY in about 23 hours , Miami is a long way from home !!!
I can't believe I have been gone from my computer for a week and there is 3 pages about my boat . You guy's are unbelievable , I am proud to belong to the Pantera Family .
The boat came out awesome . Jo , Pepe , and Linda gave me Six straight day's in a row of none stop work . Pepe is very dedicated to his work and did a great job keeping 3 or 4 guy's busy on my boat while also keeping 2 guy's busy doing glass work in a new 24 . Jo thanks for the extra effort on Saturday , I think you kicked off your shoe's at 8 o'clock in the morning and got in the boat and didn't get out until 6 pm when I pulled out of Miami . My 4 year old Samantha played in the cabin most of the morning while I was cleaning her up from the long ride and showing it off to some friends and family that stopped by today . I will post some pic's as soon as I get a chance .
Thank you Morgan

Re: Morgan's 28
Congrats Morgan! Boat looks great. I know the feeling on that drive up from Miami - it is a long one. The good thing is after making that trip, you don't think twice about trailering the boat anywhere.

Re: Morgan's 28
Hey Morgan:
What prop did you run with? I'll bet it should probably be a stock 26 B1 or maybe you could try my 26 B1 labbed. I still don't get up to RPM's with the 26 labbed or even the new P5-X 23p. I'm sending the P5-X to Hydromotive for a Rec. Lab finish and having them soften the cup per their instructions. They said I should get everything I'm looking for with this adjustment. I threw the 24p B1 on and will be anxious to see if I get the top end back.
The 5 blade is awesome in the sound but I don't think you'd need it on the lake. T-Mone runs a 3 blade on Candlewood lake on his 24 and gets the most top end but attitude is much different.
Boat looks just awesome. Maybe we can get you to haul it down to the sound. Wait to see those Panteras jump in the sound. Lots of air. JROMY, T-mone and I went jumping in 4 footers with 25mph wind. I think Anthony is still up in the air and we're waiting for him to come down about now!!
We both were running around 53 and I couldn't believe the way that 24 held in there. Of course the 28 was just cruising along with minimal bang. When we got back to port and were talking, we imagined what it would be like to run from Miami to New York in a 24.
All we could come up with was "BIG BALLS PEPE!!!"
Later and Congrats again.
