After owning three Donzis and three SeaRays I have finally found a keeper. Nothing negative about the old boats but the 2002 28 Pantera is unbelievable. I had seen several at at distance over the years but learned a great deal about these boats on OSO.
I have spoken to Jo at Pantera atleast 6 times over the past year and Pepe twice.
Each time talking about both new and some used boats that they were not selling themselves. I cannot imagine any other manufacturer being so helpful. All the praise that Pantera receives is well deserved. The product speaks for itself.
Nothing else I have seen that I could afford has been built like these boats.
Can't wait to get it into some rough water. Also had to drive 4500 miles to bring it home over four days. Well worth it!
I guess I'll be needing a new user name now.
Also: Too Old - Thanks for your help in my selection.

Wildthing, I decided to break in the motor myself rather than possibly have it run hard on the dyno. Most people I talked to said they were not really familiar with breaking in a motor on the dyno.
I'll bet your dying to get down to Miami to get yours! Congrats!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I am
very excited about the boat . I'll post some pictures and performance numbers soon.
Wildthing- The outdrive is atleast a 2002 with an "om"serial #. There is not a mark on it anywhere and I believe it is an 2003.
