why did Ben order a deep v Cougar, when he was making Apaches? I know he ordered a 48 foot catamaran from Cougar that was Erics Reality/Gentry

I don't think that is correct. The Ciasulli/ Maxon boat was built a few years before Ben went away.

Thats what Peter C (From Cougar) Said last time this subject came up. I never knew Ben wanted one either :)

This boat is not the Mercruiser Special, it was built for Ben Kramer, before ben had the boat rigged he sold it to Tim Ciasulli and it then raced as Maxon

It is on ebay now.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/POPEY...item1c1d3c2d14

Why did Ben order a Cougar when he was building 47 foot Apaches?
