Well, since it was free I guess you can't complain, they're not a high performance piece so just put a stock motor in it and use it. Since you're not familiar about these things, I highly suggest taking it in and have the pump checked out, could save ya a bundle down the road!... Oh, and be ready to buy a lot of gas!.. :D

I run a Panther in my Hawaiian. Pretty industructable but they do wear out suction housing after awhile if ran in sandy or shallow water. They will handle 500hp easy. Have a stainless impeller stock. I had mine rebuilt and modified by Jim at Performance Jet in Sebastopal CA.  Grease the fitting on the end of the nozzle ever now and then. And there is a oil dip stick that screws into the side of it inside the boat ck that also.

I owned a 21' hawaiian with a panther jet. Sold her about 4 years ago....and only to get something more family friendly. Although I was always wrenching on it I never did have to touch that panther jet. I ran it with a 360AMC motor and did nothing to the panther for the 7years I owned it. Enjoy...

Well, when you take care of it and run it in water instead of the ground, no reason why it shouldn't perform for years. I had a neighbor once that had a Southwind for 10 years, never had a problem either!.. :good

I'm keeping my opinions to myself on this one, since it seems as though this is just gonna be a runabout type of jet......although alot can be lost at the pump, performance wise, if leaking badly.  :rolleyes
