Tonto your right, someone's always faster.. But your talking about quite afew men with egos and the money to have their boats dialed in..Hey we're talking High Performance boats, not bayliners.. we all want to go as fast as we can safely go. Yeah Comanche, there are quite afew Apaches down here, and I know what they run.

Some just don't get it. Chasing the fastest top speed isn't what most Apache owners desire. Sure there's a few. However, when they do achieve that number somebody on an internet forum or some other hater will try to discredit their claim, so what's the point! Apache owners take great pride in their boats with their attention to detail. No two boats are exactly a like. There is a certain respect for the Apache owner. They could have bought any boat they wanted but, they chose the Apache. An Apache boat is not something you see everyday. People know the history behind the company and its colorful past. These boats weren't easy to get built. They weren't mass produced. They were built to last and take the tough abuse and challenges its owners put them through. These beautiful boats, with their timeless lines and history of different names under past owners, are still around and its owners continue to hold them to a higher standard.

I am buying those numbers they got Jokers former 47' up to, they did some awesome work on that boat. A 47 with 6's and boxes and big twins would be a ton of fun.

It could have ran that speed with a real 1350hp not someone's 900hp and say its 1350hp.I had many apaches it takes 1000hp to move it over 100mph depending on the weight of the boat and drives. I had my 41 apache with #6 drives with 1350hp and it was over 115mph and the boat was all over the water. the guy I sould it too has 540s in it and it runs over 95mph with the same boat so it can be done. I have dyno motors that were suppose to be 1000hp and it only made 875 to 890hp.
