So what does it take to structurally revive a hull that's been sunk? Can you just dry it out? Or are we talking complete structural frame off restoration? Does the core survive? I had dreams of buying this boat myself, but was unsure what it would take to to structurally restore her.

Depends how long it went down for.

A start is by removing 1000 lbs. of extra un-needed wires, fuel valves/lines and bildge blower fiberglass!

I'm sure I left out a few things.

As Nykamp explains it that was a great 41 Apache, and I'm sure it can be made great again. $
I believe Tonto is constructed similar. And set up similar. That is a beautiful 41!!!!

Yea but TONTO is perfect. It is meticulously maintained by the most particular boat owner I have ever met. TONTO does not have any bad history and if any boat has a high value it is TONTO. TONTO is to the 41's what Kemosabe is to the 47's the Holy Grail of Apaches.
