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 ?

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...

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.

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.
