It was Super clean, i am really broken hearted i missed out.

I ma between an early 90's Formula 311 or a Bravo Panther.

I see the Panther weight listed as 6400#. a Formula 311 or a fountain 35 shows 7400#. is the panther really 1000# lighter? if so why do they seem to show the same top speeds with similar power/props?

or do they measure weight differently?

They are pretty heavy boats. I would say it is in the lower 7000# range A friend sold his '89 Bravo Panther about a month ago for $9500 and it was a very clean boat. If I would have known he was selling so cheap I would have picked it up myself. It was a 63MPH boat.

that sounds like a great deal! I just love how simple the Panther is. It feels like a water going hotrod. no sink, no enclosed head, no shore power or A/C...

Just a simple but useable berth, stand up bolsters, and two snarling big blocks roaring through open exhausts

It's not a Lexus... It's more of a Mustang.

I MUST HAVE ONE!
