I wanted to ask everyone on OSO, do you think the price of 45,000 is too much to ask for my Apache???, I really dont know what to list or ask for it, but I thought 45,000 was a good starting point, I know I will never get back what I have into the boat, but the boat is all most new and in perfect cond. please give me your opions or make me a offer.

You've done a ton of work to the boat and (as you already know) won't get out of it the expense you've put into it. At $45K with the need to rebuild the engines at another around $6K+ is a tall order. I noticed another 28 Apache in the classifieds at $35K with blowers, but not near the upgrades as you've done.

Sorry for the loss and GOOD LUCK with the sale.

A broken boat eliminates at least 70 or 80% of potential buyers.

Yep.

Your gonna have to find a die hard apache guy to even get an offer.

You need to fix it first, if you want to get some money for it.

I wish I could afford it right now, I would gladly add it to the collection.

Man, the boat looks great!!
You seem to have issues with making a commitment though.
You've been back and forth so many times just on this thread...

Fix the f-en boat and enjoy it.
Or sell it.
Just make a decision.
This thread has become less about the boat, and more about you making a decision, for me at least.

I guess I have gone back and forth alot this boat as to selling or keeping it!!, I have never done a restoration on a boat, it is amazing the amount of work and time that goes into it!!!, I have always owned turn key newer boats Scarabs, Donzi's and Sonic's, I just feel like I put alot of work into her and now it needs more, I own my own business and have little time as it is for boating or familey. I guess my back is to the wall and just want out. If I have to keep I will fix it and make it right, I will have to see if I get any offers!! You do make a great point there Chris!!!!

I could find $10 Grand, but then I'm "ALL IN"

I'd have to paddle it around for a while.

I know it can be discouraging, but hang in there Man.
It is a sweet ass Boat. Just carry the ball across the line.
Many of the worlds most successful people did not get there the first Time.

Sorry no Ebay auction or low price, I dont need the money, or have to get rid of the boat!!! I just am not up for dumping more money into it, who know's with the way I go back and forth it might just finish the boat!!!!!! and dump lots of money into it!!!!! I am going to talk to Jeff from JC Performance in the morning who knows!!
