From what I know, Steve 1 has left the building...;)
If the manufacturer doesn't agree with the laminator in how to layup a boat, well then the party is over. Time to move on.
I know if it were me and the lamination was going to have my name associated with the boat, it better be up to specs, otherwise leave my name out of it. I wish them both luck, but if Steve is not there doing the laminating, his name should be left out of any promotion of the hull.
Time will tell what the new Apache is made of.
If it lasts like the originals, the new ones will sell themselves.....;)

Deer skin, eagle feathers and sap worked pretty good in "the old old old days", and environmentally friendly too! :D :D :D

Hey Troutly, Pat would love to hear that, but he's too busy building boats...:)

thx eddie
 

I realize Bobby is at Apache, but in what capacity? He's the icon!:fish:

Edward, that was not an answer.

And I was curious as to why you have become the newest member with a different member number and this thread is your first post. What happened to when you were Eddie back on the Apache forum?

I love a good mystery.

With the exception of Steve1???:confused:

Are these original "Laminators" stepping up to today's technologies or relying on how the boats were built originally?:confused:
It's just a question... I'm not looking to stir the hot pot...;)

Does Mr. 2.3 million let him take time off to talk on the phone to OSO people?:D :D

HOW MANY BOATS WERE REALLY BUILT BY THOSE SAME LAMINATORS AND RIGGERS, AND WHERES PEDRO MEDINA AT?
