I believe it was Allez Vite or Warhawk that got the first pair of K drives from Fred Kiekhaefer. Going from memory on that one. Beautiful machines!

WARHAWK had the very first set of K drives installed, mine was built right along side of her but WARHAWK was done before mine.

Dollar Marine was not rigged with #6s from the start? Have video of it not sure if it was 1988 or 89 from freeze Frame.

WARHAWK and AV are both 1989's there sister ships . If J& H now Warhorse is a 1988 it did come with 6's when new.

I remember seeing Warhawk for the first time when it came home from the Apache factory and sitting at Pier 33 in St. Joseph and seeing those #6 drives hanging off the back end...and of course I always remember seeing Allez Vite out on Lake Michigan between St. Joe and Saugatuck somewhere.

Any updates on this boat?

Nykamp 04-15-2016 08:12 PM

She's getting ready for the water again. Bilge just freshened up at Advanced Marine Solutions in Muskegon. T&D just repainted the drive shafts covers and a a saddle tank. Chief/ Precision Power Offshore in Spring Lake Michigan is rerigging her next week.
