Default 28 Pantera info

I am currently boat shopping and one of the boats i have interest in is the 28 pantera. are there any things to look for on these boats, how is the ride and build quality, is there any difference/advantage of twins or single, is the cabin useable space wise, any years better/different than others? thanks for any input, also has anyone seen or have any info on the boat for sale in ct with the 525?

I had a 1996 28 with a single 525SC. Ride quality, rigger and build quality was all excellent. It was great boat and I had it about 5 years. They are wave crushers. The cabin is pretty good sized and definately has useable space. I only sold it because I wanted to go bigger and wanted more freeboard in the cockpit for my kids.

Are you talking about the one in Milford, CT with the american flag graphic? I know the owner and it is well cared for. I don't think it gets used too much.
