would any of you know any history on the apache??? I'm just curios how it has been taken care of. pics show it to be in good shape!!! and the red 382 700 has got to be one fine looking boat in person but 259k

259K, not good, 152K for the same year and 700's, not so bad and money left over to repaint it!!!

Any idea what this boat runs with 700's?

There is a Boat Test video out that has the 382 at 81 with standard power. The test quotes that "Formula states that with SC700's this boat runs deep into the 90's. We don't doubt that statement"

Look it up on BoatTest.com

I remember "Captain Steve" said that the 382 Formula was the fastest boat he ever tested for Boat Test.

So ...I guess if you really want to haul ass.....

Do a search for it in the Apache forum. One of the members chased that boat from Ontario to 'Lauderdale and took quite a few pics of it.

In my view the boat is mint...and I have walked all around it.

I would love to own it.

I remember reading about it with 700's but can't remember the speeds...I'm guessing 95-98 tops

thanks for the info sprink i'm headed to do a search now!

I rode in the 08' factory Formula Poker Run Boat, w/700's, and 6 people, it ran 89.9, Vic said, with 2 people, it would run 94-95.

That's about as close as we are getting to running it ourselves...very believable.

With some after market tweaking I would not be suprised to see tripple digits.

Apparently Captain Steve has never made it to Washington N.C.

Don't know if its just me but that one starboard pipe looks like it ran hot.

whats wrong with the paint????
