this appears to be a great deal.

Is that Freds:angry-smiley-038: old Pantera?

I'se believes so.

is that a good or bad thing?

looks pretty nice from the pics.

It's a political thing.
Pics are a bit dark.
Not one shot of the cockpit or the of the hull bulkheads(in lieu of cabin).

So whats the story on this one? Does it have a black cloud over it?

that sucker is in my back yard

that is a nice looking pantera. for some reason i cant stop looking at this 24 though! it just one of the coolest boats ive ever seen!

No black cloud that i know of.
I liked Fred, he always gave me good advice.
I've always dug this boat, but a 6man wont work for me.

Doesn't that go back about 8 years?

I can totally do a 6 man. OH kyles going to the bank soon.... Its a good thing i just paid off one of my trucks.

Is there any where i can find more info on this?

Hi guys. This is Fred's old boat. He sold it to a friend of mine and I bought it in November of 2003. I dropped a valve summer of 2004 and took the engine to Tommy @ Chief for a rebuild and got it back on the water summer of 2005.

The boat has less than 40 hours on it since the rebuild due to low water levels on Lanier and my recent divorce. This is a solid boat with a lot of potential. I just need to liquidate it because of my situation. I've priced it for half of what I have in it in order to move it fast.

Currently it's turning a 30" Bravo 5100 rpm for 78 mph with 1.5:1 Bravo X drive. I have dyno and build sheets/invoices from Chief. Dyno shows 705 ft/lbs and 712 hp @ 5300 so it's got some more oomph with some prop tuning.

Call or email me with any questions and I'll shoot straight with you as well as take any additional photos you may want.

Hey nice boat if you have any picture you would like to post for you email them to me at [email protected].
How is the cover and interior?
I have found it very useful when selling anything like this to take just a ton of pictures and load them on photo bucket. that way you dont have to always attach them in an email. just send a link for 100 pictures.

What more pics does a person need? If it's anything you are wanting to buy, go take a look at it. The boat looks great to me! Quit hassling this guy and someone just go buy it!

Easy killer,

I was being nice and offering to post any more pics that he may want on here, since he cant....

Is there anything about me hassling this guy? NO there is not....

LOL.... boat has been on the market for less than 24hrs...
this guy has not been hasseled yet.
BTW, nothing wrong w/ asking for pictures of the cockpit or cabin or better dash pics before having to shell out $600 for a round trip ticket and a car rental.

Now, on the other hand, if you are just tired of SLP's search for a boat... then just say so. :party-smiley-004:

If I was in the market for a boat I would be on a plane right now and contacting someone to do a survey and leakdown test.

At this price even if you had to recover the interior, rebuild the drive and rebuild the motor you would still be between 50-60 and have a basically brand new boat. If you are lucky you could run this thing for a couple of years before having to shell out some dough. I got 2 years out of mine.

I bet it will run around 80-82 with the right prop on it.

Mine ran 81.6 with the old motor and I didnt have it propped perfectly. Jo has said mine would run around 86 with the right prop.

:eek::drink::lolhit::drink::eek:

You might have something there.

How was the bank visit?

Oh boy, your going to get me into trouble.

That mean it went well, LOL

Sorry guys, I nabbed this one :)

congrats where is it going?

Pantera will be on Lake Norman, NC. Have been searching for a while and this one was 10 minutes from me. Crazy.

Sounds like perfect Karma ..... congrats! :ernaehrung004:
Nice classic lines and colors ..... very sharp!

Nice... love the originality of it.
But i didn't get the ad.
It was first listed at 13,500... then 18,500.

I gave the owner a down payment. He is being wonderful to work with as I gather the rest of the funds.

He was getting many phone calls so he raised the price and is taking names & #'s of interested parties in case this deal falls through . . . which it won't.

The price increase eliminated the "can you send me more detailed pics" call & emails. The pics he has up pretty much represents the condition.

So, should take delivery in 2 weeks. Maybe less.
I'll post more then.

congrats

That 24 was a nice buy
 

It looks mint, best of luck

Here are some addtional pictures of the boat. Still available!

Nice boat congrats!

Were going to be keeping the boat down south and race it with SBI.
This will be the new DJM Racing team boat. We are really looking forward to getting this boat up and racing, plans are to head to Mooreshead NC in a few week.

Keep us posted! :drink:

Thank you Chris!

I just spoke with Herb, he'll be picking it up tomorrow after lunch. I hope you tear 'em up with this boat!
