i want that bad boy...

No reserve?

17 hrs left. No bids. Wish I had the funds. I bet the bids start soon. Artie

Looks like it's been listed for a few days and 0 bids, what makes you think that the bids will start soon? Because it's at the end of the auction?

I KNOW I'll take crap for this but there's this thing about purchasing big ticket items done of you may have heard, it goes: never buy emmotionally or "with your heart".

I have to say, I love apaches as much as the next guy but quite frankly, they're overpriced. 26 year old ex race boat? I'll take a 16 year old non race tiger for half the cash. Most would consider being beat to death on the race course a bad thing. ;)

You guys are nostalgic and love the mystic of apache (as do I). But it's not that shocking no one has bid on it. The market is tiny and takes a fanatic that'll justify the price when compared to equal(ish) boats. Plus most of the fanatics either A) can't buy it because it's too much or B) already own an apache.

Sorry. Just devils advocate.

I'd still love to own it.

Awesome boats but I agree, has to be someone really into them and not care about the age of the boat to drop that kind of coin. There are a lot of newer boats you can get for that price, actually for less. Not sure why these always go up for sale with big price tags, they don't ever seem to sell, you'd think that would be a hint.

Part of me agrees. But the youtubes have made this boat pretty famous too. The late model chief seems like a deal.

This is my first post to offshore only but I just had to respond. I live in muskegon michigan and have seen this boat run, it is magnificent. If I could buy it I would but unfortunately I'm just a dreamer. I think the reason these boats get the price tags they do is because they are rare and it is about buying a piece of history. Dont get me wrong the outerlimits, cigarettes, Donzis and fountains are great but everyone can get one and they all kinda of look a like. The few Apaches out there all have unique histories and unique paint jobs. I dont think I've ever heard an Apache owner regret their purchase. These boats are rugged in big water and are fast without the steps. They have stood the test of time. I hope whoever gets this boat loves it and appreciates it, maybe if I'm lucky it will be someone from west michigan so I can continue to see her out on the water. I have a feeling if it sells it wont be for sale for a long time again but who knows maybe by then I can afford her.
