Nick the guy that posted above you owns it now. He is also from PA. His wife saw the title from when you owned the boat and she is from your area.

Sorry M that this thread got away from your boat. I know a few Apache owners looking to give you advice. Like I told you on the phone if you go to Perry you will be the second Apache on that lake. They will make a big deal about it. Smithville I am sure you will be the first. Not sure if anyone at Smithville lake even knows what a Apache is.

No big deal about getting off the intent of this thread. Love seeing all the Apache owners out there chiming in. The powerboating community is great, and I am looking forward to getting to know more Apache owners. I will be at the Ozarks this weekend, and hopefully I’ll be driving my Apache down or up the river….

How long did you own the boat and who did you sell it to?

I believe i bought it in sept of 2002 and sold it in 2004. It was a great boat but i kind of went into more offshore fishing and bought a 38 ocean. I bought the apache for 48k and sold it for i believe 38k to a fire fighter in i believe ohio. I would have kept it longer if i didnt go a different direction in my boating life. It had stock 454 magnumns. It had stainless marine exhaust on it if i recall.. I ran it in the stock form and it was a 67-68 mph GPS speeds. The boat was very nice when i bought it with a very glossy clean hull and top sides. I kept it under a canopy and fully covered with sides to the cover that the previous owner had. i did change out the gauges to gaffrig when i had it. I did rebuild one drive when i found a metal chunk come out when i changed the fluids. had to replace a upper gear set. I did not beat the baot as i am easy on things and do regular maintenance. I have to dig up the pictures of it , i have them somewhere. Orignally i did not have the circle apache logo on it.
