An Exceptional and Compelling Solution for Smaller Performance Boats ▼

Mercury Racing introduced what I consider to be a very important addition to their Racing lineup with the new V6 R-series engines.

As we know, the V6 through the V12 - both mainline consumer products and racing versions - are all based on the same general design platform that was designed to be extensible from the beginning of development. With this in mind, I think a V6 racing variant was inevitable, and I explored that possibility in an article back in January.

A Fascinating Look At Unbridled Ingenuity Without Responsibility ▼

I would like you to envisage what the ultimate super-high-performance boat would be. An apex predator at any location you chose to unleash it upon. Would it be the sensational 59-foot Cigarette Tirranna? Maybe it would be a boat from Marine Technologies, Doug Wright or Nor-Tech. Many would agree that all of those companies produce boats that represent the ultimate manifestation of the combination of cutting-edge marine technology, hull design and exhilarating performance. Those companies produce boats that have no equal among water speed-addicts and a presence that is ostentatiously magnetic, while casting aside the notion that money cannot buy happiness.

It’s interesting to look at the design characteristics that give the tunnel hull design it’s ability to ‘fly’ and to achieve great speeds.

Raleigh, NC – The name Pantera Boats conjures up memories of Miami’s notorious Thunderboat Row and the rousing days of offshore powerboat racing, when tough men fought rough waters in new hulls to earn trophies and bragging rights. Says legendary offshore racer, race boat builder and author of Tales from Thunderboat Row, Allan “Brownie” Brown, “The heart of these boats, the hull shape, was drawn by a small number of visionary architects. Some were ugly, some ‘wet,’ some fell apart. The survivors, Formula, Cigarette, Magnum, Apache, Cougar, Donzi, and Pantera, are all still existent in one form or another. I just learned that Pantera was rescued by a young and willing builder who intends to integrate today’s space age materials with the well-known ride and performance of the Pantera. Should be a good fit!”
