no twin engine boats in P5, sorry and keep looking

looks more like an 84 not a 94. Ide check with OPA first. The rules may have changed, but I dont think twin motors are allowed in P-5. I dont see why an exception couldnt be made because its a 24.

I would rather see you find a 24 with a single IO. blow a powerhead and the boat aint so cheap anymore. There are a few out there in that price range.

Not in to terrible shape. I think twin-outboards are allowed though.

Not sure if reliable would be the correct adjective for older 2.5's. I would also rather sit down in something with that little free-board for racing.
Im sure the price is negotiable so it could be worth a shot though....if the price was right. Pantera did make good rough water boats, for its size.

I thought OPA was speed bracketed? Is there a restriction on number of motors also?

No twins in P-5... IO or OB

I know twin OBs on a 27 Excalibur, were not allowed last year. By the looks of the instument panel, I'de still say 1984. also the serial numbers looks like an 84. if its an 84, i think they are asking too much.

I agree '84
Thanks Bruce

P4 all the way. You'll running against P4 "Specialized Racing", a 30 Superboat w/ a pair 2.4L egg beaters. That would make a good race.

Opa p5 rules up to 28 feet, no twins allowed in p5

Those are 2.5's. He has the 2.4 covers on it because they are to close together fot the new style covers.
