I got your update right here!

New cockpit dash molds for Port and Starboard side are completed, Recessed hull sides mold is completed,twin stepped insert for the 28' mold will be finished next week. Then we will lay up a new twin stepped hull ( # 1 ) for O.S.O. member Pantera 28TS ( Scott Bailey ).

The insert for the mold is alot of work and taken a little longer than expected. We should be able to pick up over 12 % more speed with the new bottom with the same HP.

Any chance of seeing some photos of the progress? It looks fantastic!

That would be sweet!

I will post some pictures in the next couple of days. We are very excited with new changes on the 28' model. I have been wanting to do the recessed hull sides for the last couple of years and happy to see it all coming together. The updated 28' model will be very fast and have a unique look !!

If it looks anything like that pic it will lopk GREAT!

:D:evilb: Too Funny.............Can't wait to see the next update.

Sweet to hear you are going with the recessed hull sides. That photo has been there ever since I was first turned on to Pantera and I know its been a long time coming. Are the recessed hull sides going to provide any functioning improvements to the boat? Or is it just for show? Is it going to be an option or is it going to be on all the 28 panteras?

Sweet...
