    2008 Pantera Classic Top Speed

    I have a 2008 Pantera classic with a 200 HPDI V-Max, running a 25-M prop. I am having issues getting the bow to lift on the boat. Currently regular tournament load on water like glass I am running 67-68MPH @5400 RPM. If I try to trim any more I begin to porpoise (Note: this is for slick water). When there is a light chop, I can get the boat to 72MPH at 5600-5700 RPM. I believe my main issue is bow lift in the slick water.

    I do not have any rooster tail coming from the boat.

    Lower the motor on the jackplate and see what happens. Although, you should see better speeds in light chop vs glass.
