It better be done legally, because there are protection laws in the U.S.

It depends on the renewal. And with the economy in the shape it's in (new powerboat building in particular) isn't the most lucerative endeavor.

It's been said the molds were leased so if that's true they could have pulled an exact copy and you can wipe your azz with the laws.. lol 
Add Sabre into the mix...they bought the molds... Matter of fact, there were a LOT of molds that were sold by the gooberment and others that were/are being used. Besides, the hull is antequated.
Fact remains, it's a really nice boat and the updated deck lines are pretty nice in my opinion.
Later!

Maybe so. I hope this whole powerboating deal isn't a last off. A lot of manufacturers have quite a few boats sitting. Let's see what the future brings.

Wrong attitude for the Apache forum. If it's so famous post about it in the Legend forum. Mark McManus builds Apache, not Legend, so it's not a real Apache. It is the old style mold with a no notch transom & probably a inferior transom angle, among other differences. So it's not the latest and greatest Apache design. Forget about trying to say it is a better layup, McManus Apache Powerboats are proven.
