I ran the 26 Factory demo boat yesterday for a couple hours between Cape Coral and out and around Ft Myers Beach and it's pretty badass. This one is a 100% full exposed carbon fiber build that they slapped a 627 on because they had it sitting around the shop lol. Next will have either twin 300R's or a single 450R on it. With the monstrous 627 it ran a best of 84, with people and fuel run in the high 70's.

Unfortunately Pepe isn't involved with the company at all.

I remember seeing this exact boat marketed as carbon marine x amount of years ago at the ft lauderdale boat show (have the pics saved). Either they made their own replica hull back then and renamed it after winning over the rights to the Pantera name in court now oooor they had the pantera mold since then and just didnt have the rights to the name until now. Hope its the latter but either ways it was and is a nice looking boat.

Carbon Marine built 2 of these from the 26 Avance molds. The one you are referring to had a red interior and was in either Lauderdale and or Miami shows. This specific boat was built by Carbon Marine off of the 26 Avance boat molds under the Pantera trade name. Carbon Marine and Jaguar Marine are now partners in Pantera Boats. Carbon will be doing the fully exposed carbon builds and Jaguar will be building the rest at their facility in OBX NC. This hull is in edition to the 24, 28 and 36 Pantera molds which they have since acquired as well.

Why is the 627 going away?

It was nice watching the video and seeing what Haul Over looked like from the inside.

Seven Marine have ceased operation.
Seven Marine no more :(

I saw this boat in Cape Coral on the River by the Westin last weekend. I was in my Cig CC.... Was shocked to see that 627 on the back!!!
