ApachePete owned and raced Allez Vite when that video was taken.........maybe he will chime in and tell us? Another question....what was the performance difference between the C&G 850's and the Merc 1000's? I believe Allez Vite could eclipse 100 mph. It was also one of the first offshore powerboats to employ the K Drive (possibly WarHawk was first) which later became Mercury Racing's VISSM. Impressive powerboat, then & now!

51 Outerlimits is the best v bottom rough water boat I've ever owned or been in. Very impressive to say the least!

Let us all in on it what your claiming. Show the video of it running 6' to 8' plus seas. Love to see it. Don't forget the build quality of an Apache Powerboat!
