It is my 81 before I removed the graphics Here is the current one http://www.panteraboats.com/ownersga...atID=98&page=2
I am hoping that Jo or Pepe have some older photos of it. That ribbon graphic was popular back in the day. I t was partially removed from the port side when I got the boat and I wanted the all blue and more classic offshore look hence the change. chris

Those were the real "Miami Vice" days! Too much partying back then. I am sure that a lot of people in this board miss them days, specially here in Miami.
Ask anybody who was here @ the time.

Pepe is an old man now,(58 y/o) his biggest thrill in life is to watch his 2 1/2 y/o bad ass grandson suit up in his race gear to ride his 50cc Kawasaki @ the track.

Yes, it has been an exciting ride, thanks God for the Ms. pp that has been by my side since I was 16 y/o, hell I have been married almost 40 years to this lady, which some of you have met in person. She is quite a lady. Not to mention a great son and daughter.

pp.

PS, Rocky Aoki (Benihana) told me once:
"if you are scared of dying, you are scared of living!".
So very true.
.........and now, you know the rest of the story....
