Thanks Guys !! I will post better pictures tomorrow. We are very excited on the new changes going on the Pantera 28' model now. WE also have new dashes for the cockpit completed.

Would like to dump the headers out the hull sides but if we need to do mufflers for Scott the pipes will go out the transom.

The recessed hull sides are "optional" so a customer may order the new 28' "twin stepped" with or with out them. I have been wanting to do this for over 2 years now so I am very excited to final see this coming together.

Also customers have the option of ordering a new 28' with the TS bottom or with the full 24 degree deep V version.

My plans are to put in a few hidden LED lights so the sides can be lit up at night to give the boat a true custom look while night boating or docked at your local hot spot.

We will also make up some trick looking aluminum plates for the recessed sides. Custom paint can be added to the recessed sides even though I like the clean simple look for now. I am thinking Silver metalic hull sides and maybe the recessed area in a charcoal gray color to accent it.

The hull sides are also 2 1/2 inches shorter now near the transom due to the twin stepped bottom.Looks real nice and changes the look of the hull.

New twin stepped bottom with notch transom should be very fast !!!!

Post more pictures soon.

Regards,

JO

Jo & Pepe ,

The hull looks great as usual !! You guys continue to pump out an awsome product that seems to be getting better & better with age... ( no offense there old man ) LOL....

In my opinion it is hard to improve upon what you guys already have with the 28 but I will say that I beieve the new bottom is going to be sweet & you guys are heading in the right direction ! Congrats on the new birth !!!!!!!!

Thanks Scott. I think you are going to need 1 of these new 28 TS in the near future with a pair of high HP small blocks.

Hey Jo and Pepe! That looks soo awesome!!!

I like the idea of silver hull and charcoal recesses! Kind of how I imagined it if I was going to order one!

Jo & Pepe - The new 28 looks fantastic! After seeing those new pictures and now that the water levels are back up in North Carolina I am ready to put my 28 back in the water...
