As nice as it is, I don't feel the paint does the lines of the boat justice.

Not one to be negative, because I'm well aware of the work and money to bring it to this level.

I would just like to see something that compliments the boat and the heritage.

Something that just seeing the lines alone you know what it is.
I feel like it's so busy its almost in camo.

No matter what though I'm sure he will get more than enough attension to bring plenty of smiles

I'm going to have to agree fully with you on this, I just really don't like the "tribal" like paint job and the cockpit. Don't get me wrong, a 47 Apache with trips is one of my dream boats, I just would have done things a bit different.

But, that's why they also say "to each their own" and I'm sure the owner loves crushing those waves in that beast.

Still a nice rig, just agree on the classic side of the Tribe.

I'm guessing the guy in the pic is the owner? Looks happy! That's the best part of getting something the way you want it. Lucky man!

pretty impressive swim platform that follows the bow on the transom. Is this something McManus does?
