1979 pantera 24 ft boat. 2 outboard mercury 225 hp engines.

That's a nice looking Pantera. I wonder how fast with the twins?

how does your boat run with the twin turbos?

Twin 200's ahould run around 70, I think it is slightly overpriced being as it needs a complete updating.

Yea a pair of 225 pro maxes and good to go> find a pair on scream N fly and you are all set Looks nice.

Runs about 80 MPH.

I love the look of that boat. old school rules.

yes, old school is cool, til yer fixin it every weekend, mine is updated, and as reliable as can be.

I was talking more about the look. These boats are classics and should be restored to reflect the era. I would hate to see a Yenko Camaro restored with modern day graphics along the side.
Mechanically, I can't complain when a 30 year old part goes on my boat. But I hear you. It is nice to have all new running gear. Just get in and go.

Whatsamatta you no likey Purple??
