key west races
 

how many pantera boats raced in key west this year??

found 1 so far

1 24 & 1 28.....the 28 was running really well....the 24 was catching air the whole time but staying together especially at the wall..

whats the 28 got in it for power?

When i looked at it, it was powered by a N/a Chief engine. i want to say 600 hp?

Boat is a is Mid to late 90s I think.

Hey everyone, that's mine and my brothers boat, it's a 97 and we won on Sunday, the boat ran extremely well in the rough water. The engine builder we used for key west was Jeff Cropper from JC Performance in New York. We didn't run weds or friday due to some steering issues.

Congrats on the win! Boat looked great on Sunday.

Sunday definitely seemed like the roughest day too.

JC builds a great motor. He ran well all week, except the last portion of Sunday's race. Hopefully he'll recover quickly.

Congrats Superheat on the Sunday Win...

Dude, my girl got a cool pic of you guys comin from 2. A huge fish looked to be jumpin over your boat. Not kidding. She may have posted it on our fb page. Perdition offshore racing. Brian p3-11

Congrats! :) JC builds great engines! Besides he's a great guy!

But the 24 looks way to heavy on the back. Please straight this out for me, but why a #3 setup on a 24?

Here's a good video of the 24 running in Key West

simple answer if we had run a bravo in key west we would have broken it. We chose a speedmaster setup for reliablity so we don't have to worry about the bravo breaking, we usually run a 4 which is a lot shallower but ran the 3 to help the boat track a little better in rough water and not prop walk so much!

And we had a drive trim issue and couldn't trim the drive in anymore to get the bow down that's why it was running a little kitey.

Ahh... Noticed it was running a little high when y'all were racing. Sure was rough on Sunday...

yes sir it was, but its not fun unless its rough :D

Great video Gregg ! Nice to see that Pantera 24' still running that strong.

I remember going with my family to see Scott B race in it for the first time I think in 2000 at Holiday Isle which he won.
