You guys are so defensive you can't answer questions...
BTW, as stated in the video it was build/rigged by Mark... I simply asked a question....for all we know the driver had it overtrimmed or wanted a high X-Dim so the boat went faster.... There are trade-off's with high, low X-Dim's...you guys are the experts so you already knew that...

the team boat had electrical problems and lost trim.

MikeyFIN...
I was 5 and you were 15 when all this was happening....neither of us worked there or owned the company.... I'm sure we both have friends/relatives who were there and similiar to the old Indian campfire stories about Geronimo etc. the stories have their place...
It's just not worth arguing anymore....

instead lets wonder/search where that Squadron/Apache is...

As was said before, McManus is doing refits and repairs. Folks who own Apaches know where to find him. More website would only bring more inquiries on new boats- 95% from tire-kickers.

Now which one? Thereīs two Apache 33 models said to be..a wider version and a narrower?
So which one is a spinoff a 33 Flatdeck Cig and which one is a spin off from a 35 Mistress ?
Not to sound skeptical or judging anyone but If I was building boats especially in the early days I surely would try to rent/loan a mold ( at least while getting started or building one-offs )and do a few hulls.
Iīm positive Don A did rent his molds too if they werenīt used much.
Iīm just trying to trace the history here thatīs all, maybe even help future restorers/boatbuilders.
