36 apache

Re: lightest v bottom of the 80's?????
 

My boat is 10,500 dry, that's heavier than most. I'm not sure they even made the 36 back in the 80's?

Re: lightest v bottom of the 80's?????
 

Your right its not 1980's but the 36 in the classifieds is at our shop now and we pulled it out with a 1500 short box.

Re: lightest v bottom of the 80's?????
 

Can you get it on a scale, maybe it's some kind of light lay-up? I'd be curious to see what it weighs.

BTW, what's a short box? Do you mean short bed? I can pull my boat with my 2500 burban but not up hill and stopping is fun. :eek:

Its a 1993 chevy step side short box(bed). 4-low and its only up the driveway (launch ramp).

The lightest boat was the one with the cargo area empty, no fuel and a few weigh saving bullet holes on the sides!

Re: lightest v bottom of the 80's?????
 

I think it is lighter because its on a 10000lbs (approx) lift and if you hit the side with your fist it wobbles just6 a hair and desnt have the thick sound like the other apaches we work on do.

Re: lightest v bottom of the 80's?????
 

Could be... I'm on a 12K lift and if the boat is full of fuel it doesn't want to lift the boat sometimes. :eek:

:eek: How big are the tanks? We picked it up by water and about 50mph we hit some 6ft rollers and they were jothing for that boat. :eek: :cool: (yes the mohican waves)
