whats the length on the trailer ready to tow (with motor up and tongue forward)? also how do you like yours and things your not crazy about after owing it? 4″ trailer worth it or the 3″ good to go? looking at it the 3″ looks like it would hold up just fine.how the live wells working out for you? also lets see some. having a hard time maxing the white look good without another white on the boat. is a white boot that bad to try and keep clean?

I have owned mine for 6 yrs, 4″ trailer . If no one else posts the length info will try to get to storage tomorrow and post that. I added a flipping deck which makes the boat ok to fish with 3 people. Only complaint is the master elec, live well fill, and live well pump out switches are located where they can be inadvertently turned on with your right foot. After a while I learned to avoid them. Other than that no complaints. Boat is 2008 sold by dealer to first owner in 2010, I bought in 2012 with 25 hrs on engine.

Ok, pardon me for the confusion, I know its a bigger rig and my measurements would be of no use to him.

Measurements are available on website. Myself have been trying to find specs and performance so i thought id start. I bought the 2018 classic with 200 pro xs on oct 30 2017 and after rumming it for the past 8 montgs and breaking it in properly all i can say is WOW. i have had 2 nitros and just came out of a ranger518 w/yamaha. The performace of the new classic in a 19 foot boat with the fishability on that long 90 beam deck is what sold me.Hole shot is amazing and runs 71.8 loaded and 73.6 with just me.i have 4 inch trailor it just looks better to me and the rims and tires are better 4″and a 12 bird in the console love the white interior… much cooler in the arkansas heat

No Pantera Classic but the white boot on my 06 Sabre has never been issue. I keep Bass Boat Saver on it routinely and just wipe it down when you leave the water. Looks like new today and very sharp if I may say so.

I bought a used classic a couple of years back. Interestingly, I WANTED the white interior. Previous boat would sear skin in the 100 degree temps in central alabama in the summer. The white does exactly what I wanted, stay cool to the touch. Also have a white boot, and white bolt, and have no problems at all keeping it clean. Would not have any other color of interior myself…

The only problem I have with the white interior / cap is when fishing at night . — Reflects alot more light than the black ( fox ) boat I had before , which interferes with my night vision , which Ill admit is getting worse as I get older .
