Here are a few more great pictures of the 24' model from the early days.

Whats going to happen to the mold after 2005? Are you guys planning on selling it? Its going to be sad to not see Pantera making the 24 anymore. That was my dad's first boat back in the late 70's. He bought it new too as a hull and deck, i beleive.

I highly doubt Pepe would ever sell that 24' mold.

BUT if he does I would be the first one pitching a tent outside Pantera
to try and buy it.

The 24' Pantera without any doubt is the BEST V-hull 24' offshore powerboat being built in existence today.

I know...I was just curious. I'm still trying to find out where the old carrera 24' mold ended up!

Angel: How's the boat coming along?

The 24' mold will always be here at Pantera. It is not for sale.

Hi

That 24 was my uncles boat. It's a 78 or 79? Powered by twin Mercury 200's. I believe the boat was purchased new at the Ceveland, Ohio indoor boat show in Jan. 78/79. I will try to get more info.

Jo-

That 24 was last known to be in or near Detroit. My uncle sold it to some one who was going to be racing it in the early 80's. Possibly renamed Leisure Rocket and re-powered with Evinrude outboards. I am sorry that I cannot be more help. Feel free to use the picture if you'd like. That was taken by me during the summer of 78 or 79 on Lake Erie about 1/2 hour east of Cleveland, Oh.
