Hey Boss 272 and JROMY-

Why don't you two little girls pull up your panties and go to another forum.

The situations, deliveries, and customer service of Pantera Boats has nothing to do with you, it is between Pantera and the customer. To just shoot your mouths off here is just demonstrating your ignorance and/or jealosy. Ignorance to the facts and jealous that you don't own a successful offshore boat company like the Nunez's.

The Nunez's have been building boats since 1974. I'm sure if they were treating customers bad, always late on deliveries and having financial problems they would not have the following and reputation that they do today.

Boss 272, you state you could turn the business around overnite. I'm sure you could - turn it right into an out of business sign!! What do you do for a living other than make an ass out of yourself in public forums?

I see you one of your first posts on OSO from November '03 is:

"Sounds Like another Company on here. PANTERA?
Give those guys all the money up front, They build themselves a race boat with your money and make you waite till someone buys another boat so they can do the same to them."

Seems like you are obsessed with Pantera. Either buy one or move along. There's no place for you here.

Sounds like a cool project Jo.
Congrats Tab.

And you other guys... now that you've made your point, go grow some
hair on it.

JO - PANTERABOATS

The 28' Bow rider will be a very unique boat and we are very excited about it.

Like I just posted on the other thread: I am not going to waste my time answering Boss272 or any other dumb and false remarks.

Regards,

JO

Thanks for the kudos gentlemen. This boat will be exceptional and will be a very popular model for Pantera going forward. My family and I look forward very much to enjoying it soon. For those of you that are spreading negativity toward Pantera, please call Jo and Pepe to discuss. There are two sides to every story, and if you haven't heard theirs, you aren't doing any of us any good. If you then still feel you have facts regarding multiple significant delivery problems, and you feel so inclined to continue pursuing your information campaign, present your facts. Let's not dwell on a couple of stories because **** sometimes happens between individuals that ocassionally cause deals to go bad. Just because you have only heard one side of the story doesn't make that side right. Be fair, this is their livelyhood. For the sake of you and your children, you would'nt want someone trashing your business without knowing all the facts, and you would'nt like it much if the trashing was based on a deal or two that went bad that was not your fault. Stop your ****. Call them, then let us know what facts you have good or bad. Fundamentally I don't see a disservice in telling both sides of this situation but base it on the rule not the exception and know all the facts before presenting your comments. That would be most helpful to all of us. Tab

Domz - Best of luck to you.
Tab - Best of luck to you too.

I knew I guessed the new boat. Should be just awesome!! What's TAB doing for power?

Ron, 500hp is the plan for now. If Jo gives me one last chance to step up to the 525 I may still take him up on it. I'm kinda trying to stay within some form of a budget. That sounds kinda funny at the price of all boats these days. Thanks, Tab

Tab:

If you plan on doing a lot of saltwater running then maybe the 525EFI should be considered..otherwise the 500HP is a good choice.

Don't hold back Ron, tell me how you really feel. :-) Tab

OKAY Tab:

The 525EFI has a partial self cooled system which protects some of the main components from salt water corrosion (checkout the mercury racing section of Mercury marine's website and read about the engine). I believe the 496HO also has this system. This is a main reason for my stepping up to the 525EFI from the 500 for the additional dough. The re-sale value will be improved by opening up the market to potential purchasers. Additionally, the HP rating of the engine is much higher than Mercruiser states. So, overall you'll get more horsepower for the money and better re-sale value based on the closed cooling system. This is just my opinion. Better to read and ask more questions, then formulate an opinion. Hope this helps.
