bathtub in the bow ?

You know what the good doctor said... the closer you get to the drain the faster the circle spins.

that"s easy. It's Greg's (pantera572) new boat!:willy_nilly::rofl:

[Out There]

:icon_bs:

Tom, I TOLD YOU I DIDN"T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW ABOUT THIS NEW PROJECT! :cuss:
I figured I'd start from scratch on this one......"frame-off restoration"

Actually, I looked at the photo and didn't even have a guess.

From the signs it's in England.

From the pic labels it's at the greatest performance harbor in England (even if mostly sailboats).

I'm guessing it is a Cougar that belonged to the King of England....:sifone:

I'll give it a bit before I start dropping hints. Paul has some sniffs of accuracy in his and Tom has a bit in his as well.

This is nice, its like a riddle!

[Dude! Sweet!]

Greg, man that's funny!

You know, in a way, this IS sort of like Bob's "bathtub test"... :D

magnum

[Dude! Sweet!]

So two votes against it being a 28 Pantera?

[Ratickle]

Size wise looks bigger than a 28. I was guessing more like 36 or bigger. Tough to get an exact based on surroundings though.

More pics to come, but having a computer disorder right now...

Unless that's your backyard Sean?

That's about what my yard in NY looked like! :sifone:

[Offshore Ginger]

magnum
prob one of Aronows famous racers
v drive or out drive? I agree .

[Dude! Sweet!]

OK, so you guys know it HAS to be an old raceboat otherwise I probably wouldn't be posting it... And you can see the mounts for the saddle tanks...

More pics, and a red herring? :sifone:

28' Magnum!

[Dude! Sweet!]

Ok, so we have 3 correct answers with Toasty's being the most correct I suppose. It is a 28' Magnum Maltese. It is actually the "Magnum Maltese II" which, as I understand it carried Don A. to his first world championship. It was found on the Island of Cowes (allegedly being popped to make a RIB hull) and recovered. It is currently undergoing a complete restoration (found here http://boatmad.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9453 ).

The reason I put it up here is to demonstrate how strong our Pantera bloodline is. Born of a champion and perfected by the Nunez's! :sifone:
