Sorry Frank, I guess I got confused. I thought this thread was about the checkmate which appears to be a "pleasure" version with a cabin. Then others were comparing it to the chief which is definately a "pleasure" version. I just assumed the speeds were for a "pleasure" version since that what the thread was about.
Mute point then. Would be like comparing a fountain with a full cabin to a fountain with a race layup.
At the end of the day I guess I'd be willing to sacrifice a few mph to keep the stringers attached.

Learn a little before looking stupid over a splashed Boat! FYI that Pantera was heaver than a Pleasure version much heaver and second you do not know about the damaged Outerlimits or the delaminated and sunk brand new Nortech that was built for a client in Belgium. they did get to save a 10' pc of deck B4 it went to the bottom. That Cowes race is Tough
If you look back I have said in the past the I would love to have a 41' Pantera. Not knocking your work I simply thought a race boat was lighter than a full cabin/ full cockpit boat.
Learn something everyday I guess..

I said I thought the speed was for the side by side pleasure boat. Geez. My mistake. I just figured a full cabin boat with a head, a v berth, and a back seat would be heavier than a race boat. I can't imagine I am the only "stupid" person that would think that way.

For all you guys discussing the Pantera, let's get this thread back on track! This is about Checkmate's new 43' Punisher. If you have information directly pertaining to the performance and handling of the hull design that Checkmate is using, post away. If you want to talk Pantera, there is a place for Pantera's in the manufacturer's section.
