That was nothing more than a Russian funding a yahoo building and testing a boat..... it was pretty ugly when all said and done.
The "Legend" will always live, they were and still are great boats so everyone should just go out and "USE" and enjoy them!!!

Hey BoatMe
He owns the Apache name, and doesn't want it associated with that Chief fiasco! Pretty simple. Sorry it hurt your feelings. You could have avoided That.

Ok, I can agree with you on that. Posting about the Legend in the Apache section was asking for trouble. It was probably better suited for the GD section..... Wow, Ed and I actually agree on something!
The Statement thread on the other hand was in GD and your post should be deleted. Mark doesn't want anything associated with the Apache name just as I'd expect Statement doesn't want Apache associated with a brand they are trying to build.
It's as if you have some beef now with Statement. It was a shamless plug with no point other than to draw attention away from an entrepreneurs new company....

Good thing Legend didn't use that bottom design! There was some advanced naval technology! It did have a very fast reverse! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!You always have and I suspect always will have a myopic view of Mark McManus. Maybe it's some misplaced idol worship- I don't know. But regardless of your best efforts, you'll never elevate him to to the status for which you aspire for him. Only he can do that. And to do it, he's going to have to return to the boat-building business. And then he's going to have to produce some boats beyond the 1970's technology he's been pumping out.

Once again you exhibit your glaring ignorance. Having never been on the boat, let alone operated it, I wonder how you come to your conclusions.

And if I want a lesson in know it all ignorance, I'll read your posts on your dying website! LOL!

Ed, it's obvious you hate Bobby and anything else that remotely resembles an Apache and will continue on the tyrades, just as you accuse me of hating Mark.
Ben was one of Bobby's first customers at Apache and that seemed to work out pretty well for McManus being that he owns it now......
We'll just have to wait and see what the future holds for all these companies....
