The perfect boat for me would be the 47 Apache with a 3-man bolster.

However, Beau's response is certainly the most accurate. So I'll amend- My perfect boat is a 47 Apache on a hydrohoist behind a home in the Key's, all owned by a friend who can afford it and doesn't mind me using it whenever I like.

You buy it, I'll own it, and you can come down anytime you like.

I believe for me and the family the perfect boat could be a 46' Black Thunder. Don't know for sure never been on one running, just at shows.

Still performance with all the creature comforts of a cruiser.
I would be happy the family would be happy.
If mama is happy everyone is happy...

There's a lot of truth and wisdom in that statement

One that runs on hopes and dreams, so I can save a ton of cash at the gas pumps this year!

The perfect boat? NO SUCH THING!

Just when I thought they were narrowing in on the perfect boat I realized just how true that is.

Maybe a big yacht, with about 8 different boats on board.

Deep V= 37 Active Thunder
Cat- 36 Nortech or a 39 MTI with 700's

The new 50' Apache paid for with cash.
