I'm not bashing OL when I say this but one could argue , 4 29's made so far and 25% of those have rolled over and sank . I tried to buy that boat but was A day late..
How many 28 Pantera's have been made ? And has anyone ever heard Or seen one roll over or Break ?

Talking about Abbreviations : if you buy a new 28 Pantera SR . And the SR stands for STEPPED & RECESSED but then you get the non Recessed sides , didn't you only buy a Pantera S ?

maybe the SR stands for speed racer :)

Interesting ... I have been told "SR" = Special Racer.... :cartman:

Pantera also makes a 28 SDR.

Im interested in this boat seems like a great deal. Has one of these hulls ever been splashed and tested?

Yes, the first one is in the upper new York area I believe, he has been on here a few times talking about it and another one is in Michigan, and I have talked with him at length and he is amazed at how the boat performs, and says it feels as though it's riding on rails..but I won't talk for them, I'll let them chime in... As far as my boat, it may be spoken for, I have a commitment, but until the total amount of the funds are in my poseession then I consider the boat is still on the market...

good to hear you got something in the works. win/win, dont forget to let them know to chim in to OSO with pic's.

I love the way the way mine handles. It's well balanced, lands soft and and very good in the rough.

I've never driven a non-stepped Pantera, but the twin step is a very impressive boat.

what kind kind of speeds are you seeing and what size motors do you have in it?

Merc 600 sci.

Jo hit 81.8 in the salt I've seen 77 in fresh water with 3 people and a half tank.

I had a guardian mode issue (water pressure and alternator) that was limiting the power. I will test it again this summer.
