Sorry these are all 28 apaches, but its all I've got.
Man that Apache with the blue and white looks classy. If i could get my hands on a nice 28 that is what i would want it to look like.

I agree 100%, I wish I had some more pics of it in the water. That something so simple and single colored looks so classy..........the yacht doesn't help it much either

I think its a newer model, like 2000ish. It may be the 30 apache they have on their website. Look at the transom. It looks like the back end extends beyong the transom like a built in swim platform but without the platform.

Damn, now I don't know what to do......

By U Boy great changes, But I think I am leaning to #2 with it thinning and huggin the rub rail towards the front like Brian said. Didn't think of green being the primary but that has got me rethinking the colors a bit. Not sure but I think the design of #1 is a bit dated for me.

Thanks for all the ideas, everyone had some great input!

But maybe I should go with #1 cause OCD will probably buy it soon, so then I can buy Audacity next winter when it goes up for sale again

As for the hyd steering, that is on my shortlist if I keep it and juice up the power a bit, handles great without it for now. But then again I never driven a boat with it so I have nothing to compare.

Still debating on the long aZZ tow to the Jammin bash, maybe we can start a caravan in PA somewhere!

I like the lines of the AT and Apache from the profile, think they look bada$$. Just need a windeflector and it will be perfect! Went from a stingray with a windsheild to a true offshore look and will never look back untill my wife makes me buy a cruizer!
