I thought this was a Cigarette/Apache thread. :rolleyes:

Where did it go wrong, was it just the Apache word in the title? :eek:

I told you that comment was nothing personal, just some harmless trash talk

Racers don't buy a boat that's going to lose based on initial factory support. Nice try though. :p

My $.02

If the day gets hard enough you won't be out there, you will just stay at the dock and drink. Your comment is typical of people who have not spent time in a #6 boat. Don't get me wrong, I think your top gun is great but not only have you got no chance in big water against a 41 apache you will never catch these #6 top guns. From an efficiency standpoint and a cost standpoint your 90 mph is the clear winner. Just don't race a straight bottom #6 boat in waves over 5 feet. I don't want you to get hurt. :D

"Just don't race a straight bottom #6 boat in waves over 5 feet. I don't want you to get hurt"

This is what makes OffshoreOnly such a great community. Parnell's selfless concern for a fellow boater should be an example to all of us. I would type more, but I'm starting to tear up...............................

You're right Parnell, if the day gets hard enough we won't be out there and neither will you. You can't begin to tell me you actually run fast in 6-8 footers, it's just not possible. Oh yeah, #6's hold up much better than bravos no doubt!
