Since there appeared to be some interest in the boat, I placed a call to Mark and asked for some more details and a few pictures. Attached are the pictures that the owner has currently approved for publication.
Mark told me that the original deck was completely removed from the front of the canopy to the transom and replaced with a new, one-off design. The hull to deck joint on the whole boat was redone in the same original Kevlar / Carbon Fiber layup and is now seamless.
All 8 original fuel tanks were removed and replaced with newer technology. The transom was completely replaced as well as all the stringer in the engine compartment. The hull was upside down for three months doing blueprinting and painting.
Dual gauges installation for engine monitoring. Twin Garmin Touchscreen displays too. I recall seeing one in the rear passenger section and one on the front console.
-- EDIT --. Well, I have a couple of pictures, but apparently I am no longer able to post pics on OSO.

Apache Star is set up extremely well with those 1350's on the long stagger, even in that flat water it looks fast! Love to see it in 4 to 6's, a thing of beauty running in those seas.....
