Good thread - I hope to make a comment as an apache owner very soon.....albeit just a 28.

Had my brother over the other day and told him of the boat I'm closing a deal on. He couldn't understand why I would want to waist all that money on a go-fast boat with only 5 seats. I said - Well, because DREAMS COST MONEY!!!.

The guy at the entrance to our lagoon (with the pier on the left as you enter) has both. Got a big ugly sail boat too

Gotta love that car! Whenever I see one I always ask if it's an orignal..99% of the time it isn't.

have fun boating on the mini boat tomorrow. We may get the kid out of the house for a few hours tomorrow!

I would say most of us on this board would not tell someone hey I just bought a "Boat" but go in detail about it and not just call it a boat

Offcourse; Not as they aren´t used to what they are built to...to Go FULL TILT all the time.
Damn shame IMO.

And ALL those 5 GS Corvettes were made 1963....

Hmmm maybe because they are curiosity items..just like Apaches race wins..few and far between and do happen from time to time ?

People like underdog stories/fiction... just look at Rocky movies.
There´s also your answer to why many "diss" Cigarettes and Fountains and think Nor-Techs and other curiosita are something.
To me an Old Cig, Scarab or whatever RACEboat is a tad above their pleasure versions and gets my Thumbs up but touting the pleasure version being something else well ..close but no cigar despite being a whatever hi tech XZRSJ new edition special mumbojumbo.
And Yes Formulas with Kaamas/ASD´s gets my attention too.
Something out of the mainstream works and yes a Formula with Kaamas/ASD´s are underdogs/sleepers that can make the others look stoopiiid
