Official Show Pics of your Pantera Thread

[Switzer It]

was in 1000 Islands at Aqua-Mania a few years ago. I really had alot of interest in it and very interested in purchasing ... but bad timing with the divorce

[Dude! Sweet!]

Merola's owned that boat forever. As I understand it, it's this boat. Which is how it looked when I worked at Hutinson's across the bay from Aquamania in 1988.

I've always been very fond of the boat as well and it's the reason I own a Pantera (or two) now.

Welcome aboard BHJ !!!

I have always loved that shot storm posted from the Pantera website.. I actually tracked your number down like an FBI spider monkey a few years ago so if you are wondering who the random call & msg. was from asking if the boat was forsale I will fess up, It was me...

That's funny.....I don't remember that call. Have to ask the wife....she may have screened it from me!

Stormrider, I've always gotten a kick out of the twin vs. single debate. I'd love to drive a single 28 for comparison. We love the ride of our twin big blocks, and think she scoots across the water pretty good

[bigboat28]

BHJ where do you boat at?

[BHJ]

bigboat28,

We are on the Upper Mississippi River.

[Switzer It]

anyone know where Merola's 28 is now? I though Rick told me it went to Mass.

[Dude! Sweet!]

That's what I thought I heard, but I may have heard it from you.

[Dude! Sweet!]

You know if I think of it I'll have my dad ask Dr. Merola next time he sees him.

That Killer Bee boat looks awesome!

[DAREDEVIL]

That Killer Bee boat looks awesome!

But i think the name is funny..Killer V would be cool

[MiamiOffshore]

The killer bee was an awesome ride it was being built at Pantera when I had my 28 Pantera redone by Pepe.
I heard that unfortunately it eventually sunk at a dock....rumor or fact not a 100% sure. But it was sweet, I agree Daredevil about the name.

Here is a pic of the "Bee" and my baby next to it while in progress and then after it was completed after the redo. Damn I miss her.

One more Killer Bee.

I'd heard the same story. I remember seeing Bee at auction a year or two ago. But also heard it was bought and re-rigged and is running again. Don't know if that's accurate, but that's what I heard.

Your 28 is on of my very favorites (colors and how it was rigged).

Thanks Sean, with the small blocks it was a VERY well balanced ride to say the least.
