24SE 1995 This is my 24SE that has been a work in progress. New Graphics, Fresh Interior, Fresh Engine, 468 should be making around 500HP.

Shipping shouldn't be an issue. Try uship.com I bought my Pantera out Northern Michigan and had it delivered to Houston for about $1,100.00

I spoke with PePe who built the boat this morning. He looked at the photos and said that area is all glass, no worries. Good news on that.

Thanks, PePe

That's what I'm wondering on the core. Maybe Joe or PePe will add their two cents. Does anyone have photos of what the area looks like with the flooring out. Hopefully I can get it up and running by the weekend.

The actual holes are a few milimeters across the whole area about half the size of a dime in two places.

I've noticed a lot of water in my bilge this season, thought I had a bad bellow but couldnt see water seeping. Left the boat in the water overnight and had water almost up to my tail pipes the next day, (automatic bilge switch was stuck, now corrected). I started checking my hull out friday and...

Photos: Here's a link to the pics I took last nights. I checked the Bolster screws, they were all short. Damage looks like it was made internally. Speculation someone used long screw then realized. http://community.webshots.com/album/577986957BAhBqU

How long should the dry out period be? Very small holes just protruding throught the gel but wonder how much wood got wet and if the inner deck needs to be removed to the stringers. Planning on using the boat tomorrow, is this a week repair or drill it and let it sit for a few months.

Looks like the interior shop made a booboo on my Pantera 24. I had my interior reskinned and reinstalled as my annual winter project. I used the boat about 5 times since, and left the boat twice overnight in the water during the memorial day weekend. During each outing I've noticed a...

Congrats

I used UShip to bring mine from Lake St Clair to Houston, $1,100.00 - Upload a photo, put in a price and wait for the bids. Took about 5 days to get it here and 3 flats on the trailer. So if your looking at a boat you can get an idea of the shipping to factor into your costs...

The pads in the gunwales were existing when I bought the boat. The interior shop is located in Conroe, TX on Hwy 105 before Papas Icehouse on the lake. Same building as quality marine if anyone is familiar with the area. Conroe is on North side of the Houston Metroplex about an Hour from Downtown.

It's got a 454 mag punched to 468, should be making about 500HP according the builder. The engine build was my winter project last year. At least the interior job stayed within budget.

I got tired of looking at my interior; so I decided to have it reskinned for a Spring project. My old interior wasn't horrible, original and 15 years old but cracking and wouldn't sparkle white. While I was at it, replaced my broken tach and speedo. Seems you can't buy a 4 inch speedo...
