Hey, I'm sorry I did'nt make it. I was looking forward to meeting you guys. However, I am a contractor for servicing gas stations, and on that friday, I was hooked up and rolling out the gate when several customers called with emergencies. The storms in dade and broward kept me busy all weekend. With the state of the economy, and can not afford to loose a customer. I hope we get a chance to do it again.

Sounds good; I will check it out. I plan a run to Eliot sometime before then. I am waiting for a friend of mine to finish up his Formula, so we can test it. I will keep in touch with the post and let you know what weekend. Maybe you can make it then?

I will search to see if I have any more pictures. The motor is de-tuned at 875; right now top is 90; cruise is 52 at 3500 and 68 at 4000. However, I need to do more prop research. If you look over in the prop forum, prop slip; I am at a 28% slip. I know a big single engine boat has a lot of slip, but 28% is a little high. I have used the boat very little since I bought it 3 years ago. And have only ran the boat with the current 16.5 X 33 merc. 4 blade.

Pantera7, i have my order ready for pantera(but no check to give as deposit) , but the layout would be like yours, maybe partial cabin, but w/ twin sbcs.
BTW, if you buy wire/cable for your gas station jobs, let me know if i can help you out. I've had customers buy certain kinds for station renovations.

The Poker Run itself will be on Saturday, October 10, 2009. The formal announcement will be made on OSO this Friday.
Anyway, I spoke to Jo (yes, Jo Nunez) on Friday and he said that if we had enough Pantera's show up that he might actually make the trip. He may also help to sponsor the event but he wants to see some Pantera's there.
So, what do you say? How many Pantera's can we get to Lake George on Saturday, October 10, 2009? Perhaps we could plan a special Pantera get together on Friday night (10/9/09). Can enough to get Jo there?
Well...what do you think?
Whose in?
I am and I know that Dr. Dan is up for it.
Welcome JAGERMEISTER and the JAGERMEISTER Girls!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm please to announce that JAGERMEISTER has signed on as our latest sponsor. Each boat entered will receive a free gift from JAGERMEISTER and JAGERMEISTER has also provided a prizes for the Best Cat, Best Deep-V and Best in Show.
AND, ...the JAGERMEISTER GIRLS will be joining us for the party on Saturday night at Knig Neptunes.
It just keeps getting better.
