The Panther was engineered as a one-design race boat for the international Powerboat P1 SuperStock Championship Series.  There were 4 critical design criteria for the initial project:

​

• Run near 70 MPH with a Single 250hp Outboard engine

• Fit into a Shipping Container on a Trailer

• Be fully Convertible to a Pleasure Boat

• Have a Base Retail Price Tag of $110,000 USD (250HO E-Tech, less Trailer)

​

We hit those marks, rolling out the boat and the series at the 2011 Miami International Boat Show.  Today, there are Panthers on 3 continents.

​

In 2017, the series converted the power package to the Mercury Racing 300XS Optimax, and the performance picked up 5 miles per hour, and realized a significant handling boost over the original package.

​

In 2018, the hulls in the USA series were changed to an infused epoxy lamination featuring carbon, yielding a 660 pound reduction in the overall weight, allowing the Panther to run at 77 miles per hour.

​

In 2019, the deck configuration was changed to an enclosed canopy, also utilizing the infused epoxy and carbon recipe, along with a power change to the new Mercury Racing 300R V-8 platform.  With the additional punch of a V-8, the boats now run 80 miles per hour.

​

The Panthers are currently available in 3 configurations, with another 2 in the development stages:

​

• Open Cockpit Pleasure Outboard - Up to Mercury Racing 450R

• Open Cockpit Race/Poker Run Outboard - Up to Mercury Racing 450R

• Canopy Race - Mercury Racing 300R (SuperStock)

• Open Cockpit Pleasure Sterndrive - Up to Mercury Racing 565 Bravo 1*

• Canopy Race Sterndrive - Up to Mercury Racing 565 Bravo 1*

​

* In development.  Canopy Sterndrive Configuration focused on the SVL/PSV categories subject to homoligation.
