I think everyone can agree that the article backfired!

I guess I could have phrased my comment better. Considering that the above article serves the general public as a press release, and not everyone who buys a boat is part of the "Apache gossip pool" (It does keep us entertained). I would say that the hopes for the article would have been to give a brief history lesson and build nostalgia.
What I got from reading it, is that someone thought they purchased a brand name and is now in litigation. In the meantime he has 12 people working a trade that he admittedly knows nothing about. But, considering his business background, he will make it work...or, maybe not, and has a plan B.
The article instills little, to no confidence in the company. And raised questions about its future. I would not feel confident putting a deposit down on a boat after reading it. But I do wish Thad luck. I hate to see anyone fold.

Steve, do you still work there? If so, share your thoughts. To me it sounds like the molds are complete, which means a boat could hit the water within 60 days.
Logo or no logo, this could be the biggest anticipation ever for a new model to come out.
Remember "New Coke"? Was it the most brilliant marketing concept ever created or was someone being a complete moron? You decide.

Ron the Molds are finished we had a separate contractor for laying them up to save time with a new Building system I was more concerned with the Plugs.
The new Boats will have a Epoxy layup scheduled to start soon as the molds are buffed out..
It is the original 41 Warpath but digitally straight and sweet. no changes !!

The bonus structure is usually laid out in the employee manual, and can be given in writing if the employee request's. A Bonus is not guaranteed unless given in writing.

If the molds were just finished and no boats have been laid up yet, what are these engines http://www.apacheusa.com/newconstruc...=7&limit=1&L=1 for?
That series of pictures have been on the Apacheusa.com website for at least a couple of months. What did they go into if not a new boat (of whatever name)?
