Official 41' apache race boat list
So I know the other site had a similar thread but I thought it would be much more useful to have a 41' race boat list on here. I am by no means an expert on the boats, I just respect the history and want to keep it alive. I have taken what I have read over the years and put it into this list. Consequently, I apologize for any errors. Let me know of any so I can correct them. Please feel to post any and all pictures of the boats (maybe with the corresponding number to keep some order). Also feel free to comment with any extra info/boats I missed and I'll update the list. Thanks!

Which boat was the "Still got it" Apache that John Begovich throttled?
