With that engine-drive combo, you'll never have to worry about bravoittis.

I was thinking that they put the horn there for that 80's retro look! :p Maybe it went through rehab in 1998?

Will,

Be sure to let me know when you are heading down to pick up yours buddy. Would love to take the ride and split the driving privledges.

I heard that the original hull was damaged and that Mark McMannus built a new hull for it. Hence the ''98'' designation.
If anyone has any different info, please chime in.

Jack,
Your PM box is full (tried to PM you about this boat... )

So will everything else that weighs half as much. It's just the most realistic number I've seen on an Apache in awhile. Already powered and ready to go. You can work from there.

And ... once you put enough thunder to it to make it go ... I'm not sure 400 gallons is enough fuel cap,. !!!

COOL to look at though !!!!;)

It's always something with you, pick, pick pick :D Personally i'm all about the horn :cool:

The weight difference isn't that great. With 3 525's in a BT the weights would be close but the BT would run upper 70's. It's a faster hull. Not that I meen to start an argument about which hull is the best, but if you're bargain hunting for a pleasure boat this Apache is imho not a good choice. To make this boat run well would take too much money. There's another 47 with 3 900's and a nice paint job in Boat Trader for 185,000 that looks like a better deal.
