The first one looks like a boat that lost its bottom in a trailering incident. I could be wrong though...

I was thinking the same thing.

Mike if you are serious, and havent experienced the ride, let me know, and I'll take ya for a little run.

Thanks Rick. Actually just reaching out for my friend that's been looking for something to play with. I've told him you're close by so he could at least take a look at what these are like. He definitely wants an I/O but I'm sure we'd both enjoy a ride one of these days.

The 1st link shows a picture of Kenny Blume 2003 Pantera 28' not a 24'.

The other link is a 1999 Pantera 24 SE that was powered by a 7.4 MPI Mercruiser. We re-did the upholstery in "blue" on it a few years ago.

The 24' that was involved in a trailering accident a while back is a 1992 Pantera 24 SE that also had a flag paint design.

Since the 1st one shows a 28 (not a 24) and the second one shows an SE and not what is described as a Sport...
Kinda makes ya wonder if either of those ads are legit.

Funny, the first one is gone now and the price on the second one looks too good to be true....

I wrote both posters on Craigslist. The first one that pictured a 28' Pantera wrote me back that they had an offer of 14,500 but if I beat it they will entertain it.

Sounds a bit sketchy to me, especially considering it was a different boat pictured.

Whenever your ready, I plan on doing Elliott Key towards the end of April.

Jo, do you know if that one you did the blue upholstery on has since sank? I got some pictures from the seller, and it has a funky water ring around the inside of the engine compartment, the bottom of the rear bench, etc. Plus the boat looks kind of rough.

Just curious.
