Apparently you've never worked on/with an AMC...............MP

Looks like a nice boat. Interior looks cool. But IMO the AMC/PANTHER setup is gonna kill the resale value. If someone comes along with $2500-$3000 I'd dump it. Sorry.

Dude, haven't you guys seen the Panthera video??? Panther Jets are the shiznit! I think that is one purdy boat, however the pather and AMC hurt it a little bit. But thats nothing that can't be changed.

If I was in the market for a jet I would seriously consider Brendellajet.

That boat already has two black eyes.... one is the panther, and the other is the AMC. Together, I can't see buying it.

Exactly! Unfortunately for Brendella people equate the jacuzzi with poor performance....which is a shame with all the work he's had done to that wj. Sweet boat though, with the right power someone could piss off a lot of Berk/Dom guys....and some select flatty boys!:D

amc motor? that is a definate oddball, but the rest of the rig is top notch!! maybe a 380 hp mopar crate 360 would bolt up. now that would be sweet.

I rode in it once and I know that he has a hell of an engine but the way his jet performed couldn't be discounted....v-drive

Lots of manufacturers have stepped up and started making aluminum heads, intakes, stroker kits etc for AMC V8s in the last few years, and it's pretty easy to bolt on your way to 500+ HP, maybe not as cheap as Chevy or ford power, but It's a lot more interesting and unique too. I would say that combo has plenty of potential to push that hull as fast as that hull should probably ever be pushed even with the panther pump. As it is, it would make an outstanding family lake boat, and for $4000 it's a hell of a lot cleaner/ faster and better looking boat than the average clapped out Bayliner on ebay or for that matter about two dozen different new boats selling for 20-50K! I think it's a great deal at that price.

Thanks for all your NEG/POS comments guys... You all have to remember that it is $4000.00 dollars, you are not gonna get a nicer more lake ready boat for that. NO it is not the fastest, NO it is the sharpest looking, but it is $4000.00 not 10,000. But one thing is for sure I will garuantee that it STARTS evertime you need it to and it runs great.

longstr..I think your boat looks great and it will sell. just not a goood time to be sellin at end of summer. At beginning of summer it would be gone in a heartbeat. Not everyone needs to go fast.Dependable is better then goin fast and breakin parts. Look at me i have a OLDS for Gods sake.Hang in there.

i've seen this boat in person and yes its definately worth the 4k! the interior alone would cost 2k to have built and covered, guys that's stingray leather, not cheap shit;) and the boat is a true turn key boat.
