bored? digging up threads that are 23 years old to tell a board member whom passed away probably 15 years ago he's wrong?

well, it totally makes sense for him to dig that tread if he is looking for his father's boat... to me at least !

Would you happen to know who bought creative force returns and possibly where she is located ?

I meant no disrespect, a good friend of my father Michael Pardes who was (the original owner) Richie Powers personally took him to Apache and creative force returns was born. He was very involved in the design and build of creative force returns and was very proud of the staggered trip 800’s in his memory I wanted to set the record straight, I apology if I offended anyone in doing so but my late father and owner of creative force returns memory is equally as important.

Thanks for the support, I’m hoping to get lucky I’m even trying to get in touch with an old friend I went to high school with 30 years ago in north Miami Beach who happened to be one of the builders of the boat. His name is Curtis Chapman he and his father are both brilliant wood workers, and most likely were involved in the building of every boat ever built there as part of the team. I Thought it would be really cool to have Curtis help me restore her. I’m planning on making him an offer he can’t refuse (financially that is) So I am looking for creative force returns and an old friend Curtis Chapman who worked at Apache . any help is greatly appreciated

thank you all

Couldn’t agree more.

And if he can add information, of course he should set the record straight.
