Man, I got nothing here.
I've never heard of them building a 47, and can't find any record of it.
The pics just don't look "Pantera", they look "Fountain" to me.

Well, call Pepe and find out bro......

By the way, that's why I put rare. I've never heard of a 47 Pantera either....

I'll do some digging...

From Jo on another thread here....

I must be having brain fade. I don't remember that. I guess we've found two of the three Jo mentions????

Nice work Paul.
I'm waiting to hear back from the GR CL guy with an HIN.
We can do some more detective work with a bit more info...

I saw the ad, didn't think it was THE Pantera...
I did n't think they ever made anything that big, but...wadda I know.
Happy hunting!!

I talked to Randy the owner via e-mail, and he sent me a few more pics and the HIN. No, this is not a PP/JO Pantera. The HIN is PPF, which is PANTERA POWER BOATS, OVERLAND PARK KS
Still looks like a nice piece:)

This is the info he gave me:

"Long story short, I bought the boat in
1999. I was told by Don Aronow's executive sales manager -- it was
Aronow's layup schedule in their 45' deep vee mold w/2' swim platform
built by Pantera."

That is a really good looking boat.....


625hp in front of bravo 1's, hmmmmm


Did he say what it weighed???

No, I failed to ask about weight or speed.
It looks like a helluva a lot of boat. If I were to guess, I'm thinking 12,000 lbs and mid 70's.
But that is honestly a stab in the dark, and just a guess/opinion.
Yeah, 625 in front of B-1s is pushing a bit with that much hull, but with 3 of them...
I think you'd be safe as long as you're not a maniac.

Well, that leaves all of us out......:leaving:

BIG ! ! !

I'm a little surprised I haven't seen it in person. Unless I have and thought it was something else....

We did not build it.
