Is it just me? Or does picture 98 and 99 in the gallery appear as if the winch strap broke and they did the ole "knot in the strap on the hook" trick?
Arguably and definitely subjective, but it's a quarter to a half million dollar boat and they can't swing a new $200 winch or $20 strap.

image 142 shows the hook…definately looks like they were using a knot in those pictures you reference tho…

haven’t seen many price predictions..what does everyone think. I guess value is in the eye of the beholder…

My guess is 325k.

350-500k. does anyone know the actual condition of the boat?

Babe Ruth's bat sold for 1.2 million, rare but i'm sure there are others out there. A Mclaren F1 sold in Monterey about a month ago for over 20 million and they made over 100 of them. A postage stamp sold for 8.3 million and a Leonardo da Vinci painting completely gone over by a restorer and of dubious authenticity brought 450 million. What's the common denominator for most of these items?....If you didn't buy it when was available, you might never get a chance again

Happened every time I bought a boat. Boats and bikinis stole all my money. And now the little bikini babe that swam up to my boat 20 plus years ago is still robbing me blind with princess ****. Now we have 4 horses, 3 cats, 2 dogs and and a tractor since we sold the boat.

So true, or as Gordon Gecko (Wall Street) said…..”A fool and his money are lucky enough to get together in the first place”.

All true. Any 001 vin is precious given the pedigree.

If it has 4 wheels. Never seen a boat increase in value like a car.

APACHE definitely has a reputation and a loyal following but they are not an investment in the same terms as a Ferrari.
