Panther is purpose designed as a shallow draft cruiser to be easily managed by a single individual, couple, or small family in search of cruising adventures and day excursions in waters not readily available to most cruising boats of her size.



To this point, Panther under the command of her owner / designer / builder has circumnavigated South Florida via the Florida Keys, Everglades, Lake Okeechobee and ICW. Under the same single-handed command, Panther has cruised the entire US East Coast from Florida to Maine by way of offshore passages and transit of the Intracoastal Waterway.

During the above mentioned expeditions Panther was frequently in off-shore unprotected waters run in 2- to 3-foot seas and 5- to 15-knot winds where she performed beautifully and when conditions became less advantageous Panther’s extreme shoal draft capabilities and low bridge clearance height (9’) allowed her to be run uninterrupted at speed in protected (sometimes shoal) waters where most cruising power boats would fear to tread. Not everybody has time for long distance cruising and if for Panther’s next owners time aboard is limited she is sold with a rugged double-axle (Five Star) trailer that allows her to cruise at 60 knots along the highway and scoot down little used back roads to be launched wherever her owners decide to explore be it deep water, shoals and banks, salt water or fresh.

Offered at a very reasonable price, Panther is seriously for sale. Call us to arrange a viewing and see Panther for yourself.
