Hey all, I just wanted to say a quick hello and a many thanks to DougW for letting me know about this site. I recently purchased Doug’s Panther so I'm sure most of you have seen it somewhere. I've always been a huge fan of Panther boats and actually used to see them built them back in the day. I've put a few tanks through this boat now and am about 1-2 mph from the speedo recall when Doug sold it to me. Here's a video from Sunday morning running along the north side of Georgina Island. (I think I needed a bit more jack) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG8y_jfq1hM

Welcome to HPBC . We know your boat well. Doug is the man when it comes to perfection.

It is the fastest panther in the world.

Thanks guys, I've been clicking through the pages on this site and I see a lot of really nice boats, and I'd love to come out to an event sometime. Calm water on Simcoe seems to be rather elusive, or at least on weekends. Here is a great site for trying to plan a weekend. http://www.windfinder.com/weatherforeca ... imcoe_buoy
