If somebody is serious about a big six pack boat, I'll sell my 2009 Turbine 50 Nortech 6 pack boat for less than some of these guys want for their 30 year old Apaches....

Would also sell the boat less power and drives if somebody wanted it that way.

Does that Nortech have a cabin?

It does but very sparse, just two long benches on each side. Could be converted very easily though.

41 Apaches ride Way better then a 50 Nor tech. I spent a lot of time in each the rough water ride of a narrow Apache kills the wide panned out bottom of a 50 NT.

Maybe land a little softer, but I don't know any 41 Apache that will run over 120 or cruise at 105 for 50+ miles......

Also what did the 50 have for power? Mine doesn't really even run flat and just feel right until 80+

I have not marketed it, just word of month, send me your email and I can give you details and pics

50 had 4 650's in it, there nothing alike a 8' beam for great ride and she wont spin out if you blow a drive or motor with the non step hull. Massive difference in build quality also, run your promo in the N T section.

Ok sorry for the hijack. Back to Apaches!

Quick question since you know a ton of history. Is it true that the Mcmannus built boats were way inferior quality and very heavy/slow compared to the Saccenti/Kramer boats? I remember reading that Mcmannus was nothing more than a custodian at Apache, but when Kramer and Saccenti went to jail, somehow he ended up with the company. Any truth to this?
