Everything is coming out great new banana! We keep going at just about the same pace with everything lol

Haven't been able to post any pictures cause stuff got a little complicated with the painter but hopefully by next week ill bring you guys up to date with everything. Have a good weekend everyone!

Anyone know a place to order the race style cleats the square recessed ones white?

Thanks

Do you mean the small Stainless Marine ones? Then you can't, since they are not in production since a few years.

Contact Mange here at OSO, he sells a very nice replacement for the SM ones!

not sure if there stainess marine they look like this just a single bar in the center there on most panteras ive seen

Did you just ask where you can buy something and then post a link to a site that sells it ? LOL

Lol Na there similar to the style in the link.. Those are the only ones I've found.. Lol I don't think there discontinued I've seen them on a few boats.

Have you tried to call the Cuban and ask him , They still use them on the new boats ..

No they don't, they use the larger ones on the 28's. They are way too big for a 24. I bought the last two from Stainless Marine a couple years ago and if I wouldn't buy them then Pantera would have so they are most likely out as well.

Got the deck painted about a week ago now slowly getting the sides ready, what you guys think so far?

The blue looks killer z.

Fire.. Boat is coming out great zavier can't wait to see it done, good luck bro

Hey guys thanks Im really happy with the blue too! Once it hits the sun the metallic really comes out.
Check out the bolsters i had made, just missing the blue grab bar on the back of it. And the girlfriend decided to be a badass and got me a set of underwater lights. I put them in the pool to see how they light up and yeah, I was very satisfied with the results

Bolsters came out nice bro.. Really like the P&D logo.. Who's doing the upholstery work?

Thanks NewB! The people over at Concept boats are doing the upholstery.

Should have took my boat there .. Lol, really like the seat logos.. wanted to do P&D logos on the sides of the hull when done but couldn't find the originals... Logos you got created sweet.. Any way to get them to do decals?

Yeah I'm super happy with the seats and the ppl they have there great from top to bottom! I was going crazy since I bought the boat looking for the original logo but obviously no luck. I will find out to see if they can do some decals. I'm getting that same logo I have on the seats, painted onto the side of the boat. Like I said I'll find out but just in case it's a yes, find out what size you might want it and ill get you all the info you will want

Looks Great,

If you know of anyone looking for one of these boats, I am considering selling mine.

Finally!!!!!!
 

Whats up my fellow boat lovers! I got the sides finally painted! We painted the black lines and logo after waiting for the logo to get in for about a month! Once again, Im super excited with the end result of the paint job and all the fiberglass work and everything. Will take another pic of the top uncovered to appreciate it all. Then after that is done, time to put everything back together and water ready!

what do you guys think?

Looking good! I like the dash! What colors are you looking at throwing on it and what power are you going to have?

Hey what's up guys merry christmas! Wanted to see what is going on with everyone's projects since mine has been at a stand still! I've been getting all the things lined up so when the day finally comes it's just a matter of slapping everything on quick. Got the panels, gauges, trim tabs, etc and today just got the jl audio 8.8 speakers! Really looking forward to having it completed sometime soon hopefully

Here are a few things

17" from the crankshaft centerline to the bottom of the V for a 3 blade prop. Higher X for a 4 blade prop. 17 1/2"

Did 17 1/2" on a 22' Donzi years back with a 4 blade prop, It took off like the proverbial ferret up a drainpipe. Hope this helps.

Already set mine at 17" from the crankshaft to the v-bottom. I went with the 17 just to be safe considering the fact I have a small block 351W. I had a Volvo penta before and never saw 50mph but with this set up I plan on getting a few mph more and actually have reverse now considering the fact that before I could never get reverse due to the volvos being notorious for kicking up the outdrive when placed in reverse.

What do you guys have going on?! Spring and summer is creeping up on us in a hurry��

Been at a complete stand still ...between work and moving haven't been able to accomplish anything.. got all the glass and paint work done its just a matter of putting it all back together.. if i ever get the time.. here a few pics i shot a few days ago.

Everything is looking great! Im not to sure on how my bolsters are going to look either. I had them built kind of short purposely but i just hope everything comes out at least decent because with all the work ive put into it in this past year, i dont know if ill be up for another year of things to do. I already have the platform in my line of sight but i just dont know when I will be pulling the trigger on that

Took some time today to mock up the dash, still missing the depth gauge, should be in sometime next week, what you guys think? i wasn't happy with the square dash it came with so i tried this..
