Would someone with "Panatera Boats Flashing Eyes" avatar be so kind as to give me the 411 on getting it...

Jo gets the deposit to start building my new boat next Tuesday. I look foward to racing a few of you next year in SBI. Or at least meet ya at a Poker Run...

Welcome to our great "Pantera" family, congrats on the new purchase. Jo and his family are great people and build on hell of
a great boat. I'm sure you will be pleased.

Thanks Angel!!!

I am going to be joining you in the 24 Club. I am going to have Jo build me a 24 SE with a HP500EFI, Marine Machine steering and controls, and were tweeking the dash and cockpit out... After seeing Jim McCabe's dash on his 28, I wanted to do something similar. The outcome will be that we are going to be able to move the bolsters farther up so there is more leg room in back. In addition, I'm going to have the back bench seat devided with side bolsters for more security on those 80+ mph runs!!! Still working on graphics... ((I do not want to be a copy cat)) To round out the package, I'm going to have Myco custom build an aluminum trailer. If I go with the shredded flag theme, the boat is going to be named American Heat. If I go with some one of my other designs, I'm going to stick with No Mercy. <-- Fitting name for a Paramedic / Firefighter's boat huh??

Thanks again for the Avatar. At least I can let Michelle @ OSO off the hook. Take care...

The Pantera SE has a V fairing and the entrance to the cabin is more comfortable to enter and exit. Where as in the Sport like yours you have flat fairing and you have to enter the cabin a little more akwardly. Also the cabin in the SE has a step in well area and is more apt at overnighting than the Sport model.
Below is a picture of SE

Here's a pic of a 28 cockpit but it's basically the same layout as a
24' SE model. Note the cabin door the top would flip up and the front doors would open to either side allowing you to "step" into it, instead of crawling in.
