Tried to slightly pry it to get it to move…and nothing. I don’t want to break anything or scratch/damage the glass so what am I missing? I will need to take this panel off in the near future to access the heading…Read more

The Pantera Classic cover I received for my previous boat to the Caracal was also too big in all of the same areas, was sent back 3 times, and then was just never used. If I was to have used the cover that was sent…Read more

Remove 10%-15% per tire from capacity ratings for a safety factor.

I went to 38psi for each tire as I figured the percentage reduction was needed.

They expect an automatic gain and since they dropped weight they should be able to raise the engine and gain, it may be quite opposite of their…
