I like the 47' Spirit of Apache. Go to www.apachepowerboats.com and there, somwehere, is a video of the boat, a complete walkthru etc.

i"ll bet you would come close to shaving 2 ft off the lenght by dropping the deck 18 inch, if you took a plum line off the point down 18" and then drew a line parallel to the bow you would be close to shaving 2ft off the lenght.

Here's a good view of a cut-down hull. This was pulled from an Apache mold.

Apache's aren't nearly as "pointy" as many other performance boats. Sit a 41 next to a Cig 42 and you'll be surprised how much further the bottom extends before curving up to the bow.

47's are awsome, I rode in my buddys 47 KEMOSABE the day after I had rode and bought my 41. It's amazing how good they ride in big water, 41's are awsome and 47's are the best, and Komesabe is the best 47.

Look at how a cut down 38 Top Gun became a 36 Gladiator.

I always liked the 41 better . The winscreen on the 47 looked like it was too far forward , I like the long deck profile .
You could never mistake an Apache for anything else .
Remember Predator ? Danger Zone ? Lethal Weapon ? Starchaser ?
