Anybody who thinks Mark McManus or Bobby Saccenti isn't a "Hands-on" boat builder, they are sadly mistaken or had never been to either factory during a normal business day.

Sutphen *Ugh,Peace! I've never owned a Sutphen but do like them. I've only had the opportunity to ride in one, it had (3) 2.5 Bridgeports on it.... quick boat but very light, not an Apache ride but it was fast.

Itīs like saying that to be a good boatbuilder you have to be a good driver first, Eh?
Amazing how off topic this thread has gotten...as all Apache threads do... Like Ed Cozzi said.... You get what you pay for....:ernaehrung004: |

After reading this, and I have to admit its been a good time:food-smiley-007: I looked around the classifieds and they really arn't priced much higher than most of the others when you look at the hardware involved. ( ck the 41 Shogren has) And while we are at it can someone explain to me why any if not ALL the builders or for that matter Merc gets the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ that they can get for the products that for the most part have no warr, little or no service to speak of and they just keep charging more and more. I just don't understand any of it, and it seems to me that they are just priceing the small to middle income guys out of the sport........ Its not just the Apache's. :(

Question. Then why was/is Mr. McManus so damn successful with the Apache brand, without being a racer or engineer or whatever else?
To reiterate..do you own or are you going to buy an Apache? |

In the end, it's a crowded marketplace these days in the $500K custom boat business. |
