    500 hours?

    I found a boat online and haven’t got to look at it yet since I’m at work. 2010 Bass Cat Pantera II with Mercury Optimax Pro XS. The motor has 500 plus hrs. Too much? Still ok? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    If it is a white boat and in GA, I can tell you it has been well maintained as it used to be my boat. Don Weed was the only one who touched it other than me. I took it to him right before it was out of warranty and had him go through everything. The compressor was going bad so he replaced it and I paid to have him service/clean the fuel rails and injectors. He installed TDR Reeds at that time and later on did the compressor reed plate TSB.

    It was a great boat for me but I decided to go up to a Cougar.
