I'm just dreaming, but
 
What would it cost to make "Spirit of Apache" a twin engine boat, glass the back and put in power to make it run well? I can't believe the cost of that boat in the classified, it seems like a great deal. The paint and trailer must be $75,000 or more.

Buy this quad engine NT: http://www.offshoreonly.com/classifi...op-o63000.html

Pull those 4 1075's and re-power the Apache and have a spare motor. Re-glass the Nortech and put a pair of new Merc 1650's in it.


In reference to owning 47 Apache......I had a multi-Apache owner (including a 47) tell me he has seen 47 Apaches turn rich men into poor men! :D

LOL, I just think this boat is timeless, but I understand what you're saying.

new triple 700's would be another idea but that boat probably wouldn't do 80 with just 2100 HP!

I have seen the boat in person and it is a showstopper! In a busy poker run marina full of Cigs/OL's/NT's the Apache was the one getting all the looks!

The price is getting down there. That boat used to be my screen saver at work, it is wicked.

It still is mine, that boat is amazing. Hate to say it but in some ways I like the original paint job better :cool:

Wonder how it would run with a trio of 1350's

I saw it on eBay last night with a $100,000 bid.

Nuke427 06-26-2016 09:39 AM

I will go $100,001 at the end of the auction. :lolhit:

Look up Steve Lopez he did the triple to twin swap on the old quick tempered 47 Apache and it came out awesome.
