looking for a 24 pantera
So I am interested in buying a 24 pantera. I have read great things about there rough water capabilities and handling. My biggest concern is how big is the cockpit when standing up while moving, does it feel you are getting ready to tumble out like a 22 donzi classic does? Or does it feel more like a regular offshore boat. So what does one of these cost new? I don't mind buying an older one that has been restored as long as it has been updated, so if anyone knows of any for sale let me know.

Matt this is not directed to you ! This is for all the people that ask over and over with no intention of buying .. I guess their waiting for someone to say ( Oh, I've got one in my barn I'm not doing with ! You can have it for $500 bucks ) If anyone spends a few hours looking they can find every Pantera for sale in the country ...... Just search the Pantera forum and you'll find what you need . |

I thought it was just fine standing, as long as you can hunker down w/ some foot rests.
goto the pantera site... i had a 1995 24SE, you can see me standing in... i'm 5'10". How much you looking to spend? I just posted 2 for sale from CL ads. I think the black one listed is nice too... who's the board member that owns it? |
OCC, give the guy a break... 6 posts.
He doesn't know how to use the 'search' feature. |
I am sure you do get tired of hearing the question of 24 and 28 panteras for sale, but I am not looking for one for $500. 30k would be best if I was to pay cash, and I was hoping a new one would be around 60 to 70k but that sounds low.

My biggest fear is I will not feel in the boat and it will be a run about kind of feeling, what I really want is something more on the 28 to 35 ft range but the problem isn't the price of the boat but the price of insurance because I am only 23. Even though I have been on boats since I can remember, I've worked at marinas, and even repoing boats because I have only owned a 17 boston whaler they say I don't have enough experience to be insured on a large powerful boat but the 24 pantera they will, but I guess they are just going by statistics! So I guess I should try and find one close and see if the owner will let me sit in it.
