I was the person that cut off the capsule and moved it forward a couple feet and added in the floor
back when victory did the resto to turn it into the enclosed poker run set up
lots of history in that boat,,,,,still get to see it here and there @ poker runs
hopefully they bring it out in a few weeks at the texas outlaw challenge

From what I remember reading on the forum a while back there was actually 4 INXS boats

1. 41' Apache
2. 47' Apache Race Boat. This is the one the was recently refitted with turbines.
3. 47' Fountain Race Boat. I believe this was the sister ship to John Reban's Ohio Steel.
4. 45' Fountain Race Boat.

All in all, I love them all. My first VHS recording of offshore racing was KeyWest 1995 SBI on ESPN.. I remember seeing INXS and thinking how cool and what a monster it was. Really curious about the cracking across the deck comment. I wonder which one it was. As for the 2 fountain race boats, which size is the texas one?

I recall being lost west of Atlanta (perhaps Dallas GA area) around '00 -'01 range. I pulled into a parking lot to look at my map, and there was one of them sitting in the lot at some shut down business. I feel like it was one of the Apache's, and want to say it was in rough shape.
