Didnt Pantera get those molds(Thad Allen 41)? I thought I read somewhere they did. If they did that boat looks awesome. Even though Pantera is going thru some bad times right now, that mold has to be worth something. Maybe we pool our money together and start a new boat company. LOL.

Mark Mc Manus confirmed to me that he does have the molds for the 24, 28 and 36. Thanks for the input from everyone.

Thought I remember reading there was 2 41' molds. One got turned into the chief 42' and most recently it became the mold for the checkmate 43'

Saber has the original 41 mold, Mark has a 41 mold, the 24,28,and 36 molds Bobby sold to Thad, which he lost to Mark. The Chief stuff is Bobby's work, 41/42 with a 36 type of deck. There are other molds out there, epic is using them for there center consoles. There maybe more,hope more new Apaches get built some day, Thad's mold that Pantera has would be nice to see under the Apache brand.

Interesting... Are you sure McManus has the 24 molds? Last I heard they were sold to someone in Tenessee prior to all that. Did he make that guy give them to him as well? I'm under the impression McManus only got the 28 and 36' from the Thad ordeal and the 36' didn't have a deck mold so hull mold is useless unless he uses his own deck.

But I can verify if need be.

Our CC is not an Apache mold. However we do have a set sitting here.
