It has been over a year of being boat-less bank trash, but I think it was worth it. After selling my old Pantera 2 last year, switching jobs, moving 1,000 miles away, and then finding a house with a suitable garage, I am back. I left Birmingham, Alabama on Thursday evening, greeted Tommy at Rockwall Marine at 8:15 Friday morning, and had a 2003 Pantera 3 stuffed in the garage by 9:00 Friday night. 1300 miles in 27 hours. Tommy was great to work with over the whole process. He was quick to answer questions and return phone calls. An issue identified with a Humminbird unit when I got out there was resolved in a very professional way. Jake, the guard dog, was my best bud when Tommy was speaking to Hummingbird. I mentioned that the P3 was stuffed in the garage. The Yamaha is trimmed, turned, and back in the cutout for the water heater, the cowl is touching the sheet rock, and the swing tongue clears the garage door by almost a 1/4 inch. I measured and measured and was pretty sure it would fit. Since it does, I am glad I stayed the course and didnt think I had to get an 18 footer for garage issues. I hope to get things cleaned up and I will post some pics soon. Now I have learn all the Alabama lakes, and how to catch these spots! Do they work like northern smallmouths??!?!Bill
