Don, great Videos. I have an Andros Tortuga ( it's the same as the Permit, if your familiar with Andros) I'm down here in Cape Coral. I go out 35-40 miles after Grouper/ARS/ Trigger, whatever.. I feel like the Panga is a highly underrated platform for Florida fishing.
50 HP Evinrude Etec powers my 25 Foot Eduardono Panga and top speed is 24 knots at slack tide. 9 Gallon fuel tank is enough gas for 4 full day fishing trips here in Long Island bays going at least 17 miles a trip, starting and stopping doing multiple drifts for Fluke. Check out my 25 Eduardono Panga boat Videos here on You Tube. - Nice Green Panga. Tiller steer in the back.
That is fantastic and I would be happy with the same, other than here on the west coast of Florida I commonly run 30 - 60 miles one way. I need to be able to get out and back the same day.
I've done a lot of horse trading on this project and do all my own labor, Also I buy used whenever I can "T-top-etc". Not sure of the exact #'s but I would say I'm way ahead of the game.
Where in the gulf are you? I’m in Tampa and seriously considering a panga. If you ever want an easy going fishing buddy, I’ll take care of the bait, beer, and gas. I have all my own gear and plenty of time offshore.
Mine came with a 70, it would run 33 mph @ full throttle but required 4500 RPM to run 20. I felt like I was running the motor to hard, With the 115 it cruises nicely @ 3500 RPM and gets the same fuel economy as the 70

I would have to agree. I'm a little jealous of your Andros Panga as that is a sweetheart of a boat. No matter the Idea is to get out there and enjoy!

How much does that full set up would cost someone who’s interested though?
Looks great man!!
Thanks, I've been very happy with it.
Beautiful boat. I'm curious what prop you are using. I'm looking to re-prop my 23' Calypso and info for Panga's is hard to come by. Thanks
Solas, Rubex, SS 13' diameter x 19'' pitch
Looks great brother. I’d love to know about how much more or less you have invested in your panga so far?

Nice boat and accessories!
Thanks, It's improving all the time.

Do not know exactly. with motor and gear probably close to 2k

That's a great offer. I'm about an hour south of you in Sarasota County. The Panga is a great fishing platform and very versatile for what it is.
I just Buy a brand new Eduardono Panga 22 and wandering what outboard motor to buy for it.
