Looks like the Pantera 24 will finally have some formidible competetion with this one, See Powerboat p 63. What do you guys think?

I saw the 30 adrenaline. Its finish is top notch.
Video has it running nice and level in some rough water.

Now that is one sweet looking 24 but the question is can it handle the water like the 24 Pantera

Little bastard looks bad azz....

Hmmm; No formidable competition for the 24' Pantera...

Personally I like the old school look better than the new modern look of the Adrenaline.
And, I'd rather spend the $$ they want for one of these on a much larger boat.

OK you are VERY correct and I have driven the Superboat 24 and you are correct, it is a great boat. I found it very interesting that in todays 8'6" beam trend they are going with the classic 7' beam and flat transom design that is awesome looking when they could have made a 22 footer and added a platform and sold it as a 24.

I too like the deck lines on the Pantera or the Superboat 24's better. I think that a few more true rough water 24 may spice up the P5 class and others.

Hey Ironman,
Any idea who made the first 24' long, 7' wide, 24° V boat?
I know it was not Superboat and I don't think it was Pantera either, I believe they both started building boats in the 70s.
John at Superboat did not tell me what boat he copied. He actually told me he didn't remember, but it was a boat from the 60s.
I guess this proven design lives on even with the added glitz of the 21st century...
