Nice week for vacation
 

Had an awesome weather week here in Michigan ..... a couple of pics ...

I'm not sure if everyone was aware Pantera's are "Springer Spaniel Approved" ........ :lolhit:

Hi mike nice pic/ those 28s just look so cool ,even when they are tied up at the dock.

did you take the race bolsters out recently?

Thanks Paul ...... Griswald, no changes ..... my boat was built just like Adam's F1 but with a back seat ..... I changed out the race hatch for a sunpad when I rigged the boat and added a swim platform.

May sound strange but I really love those race bolsters as recreational seating, yeah you have to sit and spin into them and crawl into the cabin, but the sides are like two extra mini sunpads that get a lot of use, plus it's easy to talk with the passenger when running and easy for throttle training for young Jedi's.

Great to see you enjoying the beast!! water looks sweet. Man that's a good lookin ride.

Thanks ... how's my favorite Pantera project coming along? Lot's of water there for you to open her up now compared to a couple years ago!

I agree about the sides of the bolsters being little sunpads. Whenever I squeeze 4 people into mine the girls use the arms of the seats to sit while we are docking or idling.

sorry for the pic size.

I dont know how to make them small.

boat looks great Mike. really awesome.

Hey Adam ..... Can't visualize it, would like to see a few pics of those girls if you dont mind! :party-smiley-004:

Actually here is one example of my buddies wife lounging around, plus with a pilow in front of the fairing you can nap out. She thought the mid boat sunpads were awesome with a great view of the other boats .... uses an area of the boat normally not available for laying out.

I'm currently working on the new hatch I had Pepe and Jo build for me. I'm finishing up some brackets for the relocation of the hatch lift mtr.
