That boat is an absolute knockout. I just wasted an hour or so pouring over those photos. I LOVE the flush deck hatch. I'm crazy about the paint scheme. And the O/Bs on it are so fitting as far as a connection to where you guys really made a name for yourselves in the pre F1 days.

With the popularity of these 24 and 28 ft boats (not limited to just Pantera) it surprises me that there aren't one-design race class' for them to run in.

I though that the guys who ran the Urine Command Dragon were doing a single make series? Geno might be his name. Can't remember his OSO screen name though.
Looked it the race section on this site and didn't see anything, but here's the thread about the single make from another site...

jo hi.
the boat has in fact reached mauritius,it does look great.
being an african( island of mauritius indian ocean )! i do not like the major porposing the boat provides.
how do i solve this do i have to send the boat back ? or what can be done to reduce this.

LOL, I'm american and I don't care for the porpoising either.
Put the tabs down.
Sometimes a different prop can help, but nothing will get rid of it completely. Get it out in rough water and you won't even notice it. Most all boats under 30ft with twin engines have a slight porpoise.

drop the tab's down some. and keep the motor's trimmed down until you hit atleast 50+ mph . then start to trim the drive's up slowly and raise the tab's slowly ,
most likely you will alway's have to run a litle bit of tab down .
jo should chime in here soon .
keep us posted
