They might need minor trim fixes if it doesn't blow apart leaving some of the cabin on the floor.

I only responded to a thread because it was about "the best deal for the money". I am proud of my boat a will continue talking about it when appropriate.

You object that I interjected my boat into a thread about boats that are good deals? This makes no sense...

Come on guy, lighten up a little! I am not putting the Apache down - it's a big, big VHull and does guite well in its top speed when you consider this.

Peace!

Twin engine boats that break the century speed mark may occasionally need minor trim repair. When you graduate to a big boy boat you may experience this as well.
Don't get your panties in a knot there hot rod..fountains are nice boats but their cabins suck..its no secret. I have been on a 42 that was far from a 100mph boat and the cabin had to be redone because it was busted up. BTW.. my cabin is still like new in my little single engine. Also...unless you won the lottery or your daddy bought your boat I'm sure you started out like the other 90% of us that love this hobby

Oh...and nothing about a fountain does anything for my hard on! The beak on a fountain is like trimming your pubes for that extra half inch.

Like putting a triple axel trailer under a baby boat?


I still don't get the cabin bashing. I have never seen the quality issues you speak of.

But to judge a boat by trim work and how it was maybe not taken care of is just garbage. Don't think AT hasn't had petty quality issues as well......but no big deal.

I still hear the beak jokes once in a while at the docks. I laugh a little, then later when I PASS them I always look to see if they are laughing.....they never are.

Sure does tow nice though. I guess its like putting twin big blocks in a 29' or 26' boat just so its fast. Anyways.. .I'll let you get back to pounding on chest and telling yourself that you are better than me.

I'd take any of the boats everyone's talking about. I'd keep the Saber.
