    Tom, I TOLD YOU I DIDN"T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW ABOUT THIS NEW PROJECT!
    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....

    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!

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

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

    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?

    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!
