Apache 47 for a decent number.
 
Best offer

BajaRunner 02-10-2004 11:05 AM

That seems like a really good price for a 98

rchevelle71 02-10-2004 11:23 AM

If anyone wants someone to look at it, or more pictures, I live just North Of Coconut Creek.

Hot Duck 02-10-2004 11:43 AM

Wow! That seems like a good deal. It needs more power, but looks like a good place to start. How about posting some more pictures! I would love to see the rest of the boat!

SS930 02-10-2004 11:45 AM

A big boat for the money.

All white, no graphics.:cool:

LEOPAJM 02-10-2004 11:50 AM

Anyone wanna guess what that thing weighs !!??!!

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 !!!!;)

SS930 02-10-2004 11:56 AM

I thought the Apache guys liked them super heavy so they ride like a Cadillac. :p

May be a pig, but it rides nice. Isn't this why we are into HiPo boats???:D

PatriYacht 02-10-2004 12:01 PM

A Black Thunder will go faster than that with 2 engines that size.

packinair 02-10-2004 12:12 PM

I'll start the bidding at $47.00 (not to insult you but that is all I have to spare):D

packinair 02-10-2004 12:13 PM

<----retracts other post, forgot for a second it was an APACHE thread:rolleyes: ;) Nice looking boat by the way

Cord 02-10-2004 12:33 PM

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

SLINGSHOT 02-10-2004 01:13 PM

yea not with that big ass horn on top :D

Hot Duck 02-10-2004 01:49 PM

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

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-10-2004 01:53 PM

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.

Roger 1 02-10-2004 01:54 PM

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.

SS930 02-10-2004 02:09 PM

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.

Geeezzz

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

PatriYacht 02-10-2004 03:22 PM

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.

I agree. The Apache is much older than Black Thunder though.

I'm not shopping at all. I don't want it but someone wanting a big boat might. I was just cruising through the classifieds and saw it.

PatriYacht 02-10-2004 04:10 PM

I am a fan of the really outragous 47's like Broken Arrow or Medicine Man but I don't have the cubic $$$ to play with them. When one of those things pull up everyone looks.

same here

LapseofReason 02-10-2004 07:40 PM

I posted about that boat about a year ago and got some feed back on it, do a search on 47 apache or me and you should find it. It's been for sale for a very long time and has some bad history so long ago I don't remember it all.

LapseofReason 02-10-2004 07:42 PM

I bet they would take 120k for it.

Papache 02-10-2004 10:54 PM

OU Want Some?!! 02-11-2004 12:56 AM

I think you should get it Brandon!! We can race 47's, I'll even let Bubba ride with me...

p.s. why did Rio Roses leave Cigarette? they were tired of losing.

Nykamp 02-11-2004 07:47 AM

47 APACHE
 
I was in that boat in Nov. and it was sitting out in the weeds behind American Offshore, it is ruff,and everything was soaked. What a shame, 47's are awsome.

SS930 02-11-2004 07:55 AM

Sounds like someone could pick this up for a song.

Brutal D-LO! I've never seen you on the board? CALL ME, I left you a message yesterday.

Well, I'm headed to the airport! See ya'll :cool:

P.S. If I got that 47 you might actually be able to keep up with me!

LEOPAJM 02-11-2004 08:39 AM

I have a feeling this would be one of those "DEALS" that really wasn't such a great "deal" when all is said and done .... I'd wanna see all the receipts !?!?!?!?:eek:
