I think it's pretty cool as well. The wet sump 6's would take some of the price off as opposed to dry.

That boat is John Arrudas personal boat. He never really used it commercially because Turbine Marine took off so well.
It was sold to a guy who was going to repower it with turbines.
Subsequently, the deal fell through and we already had the motors sold.
The boat has been meticulously maintained like everything John has. If you've seen his shop you'd know.
Now he is parting it out. He is way too busy with racing and buliding turbines to use it.
The drives are available as well.
Paradigm powerboats is now the brokerage arm of Turbine Marine

Here are the real story on the boat or close to anyway: The boat was a charterboat in Florida for a few years until a guy from Sweden bought it and had it flown on a plane to Stockholm Sweden. He used it for I belive 2 seasons and traded it in on a 50 foot Nortech cat with 4 engines. The boat had 850-900 KE engines that was ready for freshning. As per my information he was dissapointet in the boats performance.

Are these hulls the same hull mold that McManus is using for the Apache line?

I really like that 36 of yours, Comanche3six...

Re: Ok, so what gives? 42' Comanche
 

McManus says yes it is the same hull as the Apache, the Comanche deck has round lines as opposed to the square, straight lines of the Apache. I just had a hatch built for my 36 out of Kevlar and it blends perfect with the round deck, I was completely satisfied with the workmanship.
