Really have to give Pantera a lot of credit. For a small family operated manufacturer, to stick with it thru these times, and come out with an awesome new boat. Basically a modernized 41 Apache. Obviously a very efficient pacakage, considering the speed attained with small power. IMO. That boat, has more exclusivity and merit than just about anything else being built.

This is exactly what i have been saying in the past couple of years

If you want a true old school boat, buy an old apache and fix it up and you have a piece of history

If you want old schools style with modern technology in layup and equiptment go to the new Pantara

Trying to build old school boats with old school tools and calling them new is not a good idea
I thought it might be interesting thing to do at one point (See Chief Powerboats, Sabers, Nu Tech, Legend, ect...) but I have changed my mind

It is kinda like pullin out the actual 1974 tooling for a Ford Mustang and using it to build a new car and calling it a 2010 Mustang. It is an idea that has pased (in my opinion)

The new Pantara has styling que's of the old Apache's but is up todate in every other way.

This is just my opinion but it is based on first hand experiance with old and new boat technology

I hope we see many more NEW Pantara 41's

I have some SCS ZERO Drag shiftable Crash Boxes that are still brand new and have never been used. These are drive line set up with three brand new high torque mini starters too.

They are the best you can get in a crash box and have the luxury of shifting like a transmission.

I'm putting them for sale if your interested and can make you a pretty good deal compared to factory direct.

Nice job on your grafics and keeping the boat pretty clean instead of over done.
