I kind of like the look--reminds of a military MAGNUM that was at the Miami Boat show years ago==50 cal macine gun and all --that or a flare gun would help with jet ski and manatee problems

The way he backed that thing up on the beach was cool as hell, not to mention him spinning it around in that shallow water. Cool idea.

Is there a video somewhere on one of those sites I'm missing? Or are you talking about a demo at the boat show?

If you click the link in the first post and then click where it says "click this link to see videos" and watch the second video. It shows a guy back up to the beach and let someone off the transom and then he spins it around in about 3 feet of water. Its like nothing I've ever seen before. Very cool.

Ah, there they are! Cool boat. But is it just me or does it seem to ride bow down.... plows into the waves.... seems like it would be a wet ride.

I was thinking the same thing - seems to ride very low in the water, especially at the bow.

I've never been a real fan of center console boats, but I have to admit its a nice looking boat. Those cabins are pretty impressive also.. :D

Can be seen in person at the Pompano Beach, Florida Houston's restaurant just about every weekend.

They are really cool, and really pretty in person.

Re: The BEST CC ever !!!

That is absolutely the most rock solid center console you'll ever ride on. It is only surpassed by Magnum in wave crushing ability. I'm Don will be in Key West in Nov., ya'll should look him up and ask for a demo ride. I know of one that went up on the rocks in Bimini and sustained no damage other than a few scratches on the hull. It's not a boat for everyone, but niether is an APACHE.
