Sounds like a deal to me.... :food-smiley-007::drink:

Here are a few more pics.

The black and gold 1977 24' was powered by twin Mercruiser 165 HP 6 cylinder motors. The Red and white 24' was powered by twin Mercruiser 260 HP motors.

The M-24 pic. was taken at Pt. Pleasant beach race in 1978.

hey wow!...thanks for the pic trip down memory lane....I was at a bunch of those races as a young'n.

My dad talked about a Pappy Pantera when I was real young....I remember having some black and silver Pantera stickers..we lived in Kendall back then...

After all this time, Pepe Pantera is still here! :eek:

What a great thread!

Trying to dig up more pics of this one if anyone knows of it. This boat appears to have been repainted 4 or 5 times lol

fantastixvoyage congrats on the ride!
I recently aquired a retired OPA 24' "XFactor"
that I will soon start redoing. Maybe we can finally get a Pantera reunion for next season and bring everyone together.

Congrats as well!

Boat seems solid but will know more thru the weekend. If she's not too bad off I'm shooting to make the OPA Orange Beach race. Lots to do but from what I can tell these boats are well worth it. Keep us abreast of your progress.

let me know about the reunion i have a pantera in fl, and in mi.

Where in Fl, I am up for a reunion any weekend:drink:

Yes to the Pantera reunion here! I am central, but willing to travel. If anybody needs a "regatta" so to speak, it should be PANTERA! I have heard people talk...lets do it in 2011! Can we make it official? I'd like Jo and Pepe to chime in here. Let's organize, get it together, and make it happen! Willing to help in any way I can to get it going. Let's get a quick poll on here. Who would be in for the 1st annual 2011 PANTERA get togehter. Me for vote 1. Now...location?:circle:
