There is no doubt that most of the guys racing in apaches were some of the best ever.But really look at there speeds 80-90.Today most fountains or outerlimits would be way out in front.Must admit they all sound real good.

Reports from the UK support the statement Tony Davis made. Very dissapointing indeed. A promising, fine looking offshore powerboat.
