38 3man Race / NJ / Black w/ flames
 

Anyone know who had this boat for sale?
38ft stagger 3man. All black w/ flames on the sides. From 1979?
It was on CL about a month ago.

Was that the Bad Moves ?

Was it not sold with or w/o power a couple of years ago by kid Apache or Apache Kid (whatever his screen name was) banned if I recall correctly???

^^ What he said, as I recall.

:lolhit:

Was it ever determined if this boat had any race history?

I know that LaSassa (kidapache) had a different paint job on his Bad Attitude than on Another Bad Move. The paint job on the one for sale is very very similar to Another Bad Move but I asked the old owner of Another Bad Move and he says that his boat was Black Thunder before and before that the blue Danger Zone, the last 37,6x pulled in 1987. Since the one for sale is a 1979 it can´t be Another Bad Move unless I'm totally off in the lineage 🤷🏻‍♂️

I recall the black with flames boat that said Bad Attitude, a guy in I think North Carolina bought it, when he was selling it had a wrap on it, no power and #5’s. Then it ended up for sale at Cobra with no drives. The dash on this boat looks the same and the bilge is the same color. Is it the same boat? Looks like a lot of fun

We need a 37.6x Race boat thread like the one with the 35’s

the one paul had, had a wrap on it after it was sold, a grayish black wrap

Yes, there is a video of it in a poker run on YouTube

You have a link?

I remember a red danger zone.same boat..

I believe it's hull number 2..

I think the owner of the Satin Doll/Beast staggered flat deck stated in his ad when it was for sale that it was hull #2?

you are probably right, I just read a post by O.C.Barry from 2007 that Satin Doll was owned by his close friend Bill Schaefer. - "Bill commissioned Satin Doll from Don Aronow around 1978. Satin Doll was purported to be the first 38 Cigarette ever, but I'll have to defer to BROWNIE on that fact. At the very least it was one of the first 38 Cigs ever built. It was all fiberglass with aluminum race hatches and a teak interior. The power was staggered 496 Fuel injected Total Performane engines on 100 octane aviation fuel. In fact Doug Ake, who had the little shop at the marina, installed an underground tank for the av fuel. The boat was an absolute wave - crusher!!! It was my first ride ever in an offshore boat. I was hooked then and still am now (I'm on my 4th and 5th Cigarettes). Bill later donated Satin Doll to charity and it found it's way to Chicago, was painted black and renamed "The Beast'."

thats the one that paul had called bad attitude

The boat in question is hull number 2 I was told by doug..that was El boss the one that was overweight rejected..willy ran small blks. Weight Xtra important I would imaginegine..
