https://seaboundyachts.com/tag/apache/ was listed for $265,000 in May '20....recently currently $244,000 .......spoke with broker, Ins. big factor in sale, probably reflects the price drop.
Who know this 41' well enough to offer opinion on boat and price?......Friend interested, I'm interested, we'll see Buffalo trip.

You can see in the video that he was "Living the Life" owning this Apache.
As far as the listing, some of the pictures are from years ago, and some are more recent. I think I would paint over the art work on the bow forward of the name. Just calm it down a bit .
Looks like a awesome rig , and I would bet there is room for negotiating. It is a little more than I can handle, size storage , engine maintenance , yada yada.

I’m not an Apache expert by any means, but I don’t think this is a real 41 Apache. Isn’t it a Comanche?

Saw the video taking the girl out for a whirl....was that the unfortunate owner who died?.....that's really sad! .......I have my 35' in a 100' garage no problem there, but Insurance is the kicker here....definitely a negotiated factor in the sale.

I've noticed War Dancer doesn't appear on any Apache list......can you distinguish a Camanche from a Apache build?

War Dancer comes up as a 42 on the Apache website

please post the youtube link

There are a couple move short video idling at the dock, and some running footage . So it sounds like Mike bogner worked on the boat for several years before buying . The marina is in Buffalo N.Y. . He is the last owner.

I'll bet that chick was wet after that ride...
Mr. Bognar was obviously a passionate, expert boat handler. Sad to hear that he died, especially in the fashion he did.

So, what am I missing on this price? Seems ridiculously low.
