Another badass 28 on the Chesapeake
 

Here are a couple pics of my buddies new ride. He's towing it back from Arkansas as I type.

Congratulations. Looks very clean !

Alot of Pantera's in the Chesapeake. If he needs anything for it tell him to give me a call or send me an email at [email protected]

Jo - Pantera Boats

Great looking boat ..... the Pantera's are finding good homes this year!

That is one great boat - Kenny and I talked many times about that boat... The new owner will love it...

We rode on that 4th of July 2007. What a sweet ride! Congrats!

John who got this...the couple we met a few weeks ago? Sorry can't remember their names - we met alot of new folks.

Whats it got for power?

Doc :drink:

Danny it was Gary & Darlean. They were in the 26 Sonic. It has a Whippled 500.

I got your email. We're in. I'll give you a call to go over the plans :coolcowboy:

Nice. We are going to have to have a fall Pantera Fest.

/Saber:cool:

Wondered who bought it. Congrats!!!

:drink: Very cool - they should be happy with that...look forward to running with them.

They seemed like nice folks.

Danny :sport009:

Actually I THINK that boat has a whippled 525 pushing 700hp. Definitely a killer ride!

sweet, I remember VB building that boat practially on OSO :)

:evilb:Took our first ride on the new boat today, very nice riding boat everything is running great, I think me and the wife made a wise choice moving from a 260 Prowler to the Pantera. I will get some more pics and post them asap

Great Stuff Gary - Congrats look forward to seeing it, there are a bunch of Panteras doing the Lake George Columbus Day Poker Run this year.... might want to check that out if your schedule allows, great end of season event and beautiful place.

See Ya On The Bay

Danny & Liz :drink:

Very nice boat , best wishes with her, not sure if you go out of the basin , but we boat out of there sometimes . i just bought a new ZT240 from duckys blk and orange. while there i got to check out the new 28 sitting on his lot, at 150k it was about 95k more than i wanted to spend, but those panteras are one sweet ride , i meet Joe at ac boat show yrs ago when he was with Tom Jr from duckys, Joe's a great guy he and his family seem to really know the craft of building world class boats, John, thanks for posting the pics seems like a great group of offshore 28' s gathing in the area.

Sorry for my spelling (GATHING) meant gathering, also i got to thinking if i mold a 2 ft beak on the front and extend my swim platform with 2 ft marine grade plywood, could i please join the baddass 28 group??????? NA i didnt think so..

We do boat out of Barbers Basin, yes they are very nice people. Look forward to seeing you their jln. And Dan that sounds like a good idea will have to run it by the wife for Lake George, also John was telling me about a run in the North East that a fire company from that area puts on in late Sept. will probably run that also but will let you know about the Lake George one...Thanks:musik010:

Gary , im sure to see you at barbers basin , im either there or notheast md it seems to be my 2 favorite launch sited lately.I was in the coast guard from 79 to 83 i like to swap stories with Jason at the guard base there, Barbers Basin is station vacation. i have a pantera on my bucket list , hopefully someday soon, when i met Jo about 12 yrs ago at the ac boat show i almost bought a pantera at that time but i went with a checkmate 253. Jo, someday God willing i will be a pantera owner. Gary best wishes with your new ride i love the paint job, thanks jeff

Jeff, sounds good we will have to hook up some time and do some runnin. We are always at loyds or just buzzing around that way. I usually run with my buddy JDUB he runs a sweet 28 Saber, so we will see ya out there...:coolcowboy:

Yep thats the Firemans Run - it's on Speedwake, I ran it last year in the 22 Classic - got my Azzz handed to me, it got real nasty even for big boats.... I made it though and it was for a good cause.

If I am in town - I might be in for that as well - I have alot on the plate already.

Can't wait to meet up - we might be just hanging out on this Sunday after Rock the Bay - John and Kristin will be with us - maybe we can hook up this Sunday if all goes well.

Drive Safe and Congrats Again.

Dan sounds good as long as the weather holds out. John said he would give me a call and let me know how you guys make out on the run, sounds like that will be alot of fun, we are going to the inn for dinner Friday, and will be out this weekend some time as long as weather is decent, thanks, we will definetly get together soon. Gary

Gary , we were possibly going to the inn on friday also , sometime around 3pm or so, i know Johns Saber thats one of the badass 28's , might see you at the basin or the inn on friday, thanks jeff

Thanks jln.Hope to have you as a Pantera owner some day.

JO

your welcome Jo, hopefully someday soon .if Tom jr had a 24 in stock i might have gone for it. it will be a year or two at this point before i get something else. the 28 he has in stock is awesome you can really build a boat , i wish you guys the best. thanks jeff
