PS how much better realistically will the Apache be in the rough than the other two.(Margionally ect, ).Is there anyone that has been in or owned each to give a comparasion.This is important to me because anyone who has ever boated off NJ will tell you how rough it can be.

Buy the one that was best taken care of.
I'd still like to see pics, or links to the ads.
Hard to tell w/o seeing.
LS scarabs are Bad Azz.
Apache = Heritage... always people wanting one in good shape.
Sutphen, great rough water boat.

Eventhough everything will sell at the right price, Apaches would be higher imo. Just highly regarded by those in the know.
If all three equal setups and condition, the apache will bring more $.

btw, have you pm'd el indio. He knows most of them and their history.
If you PM him w/ all the info you have on the boat, and he knows you are serious, his info could be invaluable.

RedDeath, is that the Sutphen that Fred (Trick Marine) owned? If so, how did Fred like the ride/handling? Can Fred give you an idea as to the condition it was in. I don't think it was a race boat?

The 900's will likely require the least maintenance, but they all will require a lot, so that might not be a concern.

The Ap will cost more, but will depreciate less...and you'll get the interior and paint the way YOU want it.

Really can't go wrong with any...so my advice is to go with the one that makes your hair stand on end when thinking about it. It's all about the passion.
