we ran the Pantera this past weekend again up on Nipissing. We only got 79mph on a 28p 4 blade bravo @52-5300rpm on GPS. Got the 26 and 27 to test this weekend if the weather holds. We think she will do between 82-85 once we work everything out and figure out how to trim the bugger right.
Sunday it was really rough. Nipissing is very shallow and pretty big and it whips up nasty. My buddy who is teaching me how to run this boat couldnt beleive how well the boat was responding in the rough water for its size (he has had manyOffshores and still has a Cig and Scarab--not to mention a sweet ferrari and a twin prop plane--qualified teacher)
We had her flying through the air with him throttling and me driving and then we switched and I (obviously) held back alot more but did get some big air off a couple of them.
Bottom line--Pantera makes a sick boat, I am so happy with the raceboat setup it is fun running with two guys.
This boat makes every fast car, sled, and bike I have ever honked on look like a kids toy.
Friggin Awesome.
ps- me and my buddy's son who is around my age ran the boat just before dinner/sunset to a bar on the pier in downtown North Bay and picked up some broads too! They didnt like the 2 man only setup but we told them they could just kneel in the little cubby cabin.....didnt work--*****es

North Bay broads? Did they have all their teeth? Were they 16 and pregnant or did they just pop into the bar from the reserve?
As for air time, you want the number for a really good drive rebuilder?
