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

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.

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 !!!!

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.
