What is the baddest single 28 ever built?

[ar15meister]

I love that Panther boat.

Thats my vote.

Mine will be pretty bad when she is done as well but that thing is in a league of its own as far as straight bottom 28's go in my opinion.

Looks, power, performance, setup...its all there.

like the race hatch on tunnel vision

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

They are all bad azz ! :sifone:

JO

Figured it would be like asking a parent which kid is their favorite kid! :bump:

Jo that panther boat is sweet. Where does that beast live?

2000 w/single 880 HP and 3A speedmaster drive. Had it out in the ocean today and ran awesome in sloppy 2-4 footers. 380S tabs and a smaller custom aluminum swimplatform. Gail Paik did the custom paint work.

This 28' has been very well taken care of since new.Has very low hours on it.

Saw it yesterday at TnT, I believe this beast is one of the top 28's fo sho....It's interior has a little room for extra riders with a bad asz 3 man, just means business and the way I like them.The rigging is also real nice.

I know the guys one of them has terminal alzheimer...sad story And I hope I can help.
I think there´s one pic of it in the snow from last winter on a Swedish site Tomas is involved in?
The hull has a few cracks that needed attention....do not know if they got done but the progress has been slow.
I´ll step in as soon as I´m contacted and seems my boatworks for the spring is picking up without even advertising or offering much.

You do not need much to top that IMO....

My boat is a little more 'raw'. It will be nice when it is done I think though. Just need to find some more time to work on it. Hopefully with hunting season done I can get down to business but then I go to Scottsdale for a month on January 10th on business. Goal is to have the engine and drive done by the time I get back and ready to go with the exception of painting the bilge.

Hey DUDE I am seeing an April Wine concert tonight at a club.....thought you would appreciate that!

I know the guys one of them has terminal alzheimer....

No! I think Mika suffering from parkinsons disease. It's sad in fact he's a very kind person and in age of I think 45. But I think Pelle (the co owner) are working with the boat now and he's been asking to buy a 565ci 700hp from me.


Speaking of alzheimer, in the news paper today its typed that our queen are walking down the road....age 67.. :ack2:

Here's a picture from when I owned her :kiss:

 

[Dude! Sweet!]

One of very few good things with my friend Tomas is that he likes off season boating as much as I do When you boating here late oct/beginning nov it's so much 100% focus in just driving the boat.... to a bar with Irish Coffee ... :sifone:


To get to the "baddest" Pantera 28..... for the moment it's the P4-4 F1 .... in Sweden.. but Tomas know's my orange transom better than I do :sifone:
