Spy Pic New 41' Offshore!!!!!

What is the expected top speed with the 525's in the raceboat? I know this is a whole new design, probably much lighter, steps etc., but if it were an old resin bucket Apache with 525's, what would it go, like 50??

I think that would be awesome, if it can run that #with 525's, I'll take mine with the 1350's

They are truely AMAZING boats. I have had 2 prio to being a dealer and the way they handle the rough is incrediable which is what has led to become part of the their team. Give us a call when you are in town and we'll show you the factory. You have to start some where maybe a 28

that would be awsome to see the factory! from what i have seen on video the 28 would put my 25' baja to shame lol....

Supersport class in P1 has a limit of 90 MPH this 2010 race season. It is a power to weight ratio series and with the twin Mercury Racing 525 EFI's this new Pantera 41' will need to weigh in at approximately 10,500 pounds. My Father and I are concentrating on the rough water set up since most races in P1 are known to be very rough. Very important will be acceleration since this will most likely be one of the largest boats in the Supersport class. I am confident this new Pantera 41' will be very fast and really perform in extreme sea conditions !

Thanks Jo,

I know you build your boats solid, as did Apache, just didnt seem like much motor for a 41 foot boat.

Definitely worth the trip!! You'll spend over an hour just in the offices looking at the pics and memorabilia on the walls.
And the factory itself shows that these are handcrafted boats, not a production line. Each one is custom made without a doubt.

You could have twin 700 hp motors and weigh in @ close to 14k pounds, which will be harder on the eqpt.

Besides that, the Merc 525 EFI is a bullet proof motor!
Hope to have explained the why of the smaller motors.

Joe, on the 525's are you able to put the NXT drives behind them.. or are you stuck with having to use the Bravo's.

Depends on the old resin bucket (they all weighed different) Heavy one 63mph light one 68mph

That is what is so cool about technology look at what a 38' tg straight bottom runs with the same power as a a TS Gun. Hell, a 39' Tg Unlimited with 700's runs 105 or so, what would it take a straight bottom to do that. To me this is the coolest endeavor I have seen in some time.

Personally, If I hit the powerball I will be ordering one with diesels and ASD's and start spending my days chasing Bob the Builder around the caribbean. Keep the pics coming!!!
