Never heard of "Offshore Classic". Anyone know if this rings true?

It's an Appache, says so right in the text. Wonder if that is anything like the Rollex I bought from a street vendor in NY....

Caincando1 03-15-2004 12:20 PM

What in the sam hell is that?:)

ScottB 03-15-2004 12:24 PM

It5 looks like the old Beep Beep boat. I think it was a Coyote

open87 03-15-2004 12:32 PM

closed cooling, rigging looks pretty clean. but that fairing has gotta go :rolleyes:

dockrocker 03-15-2004 01:59 PM

I like the fuel tanks running right alongside the hot exhaust pipes. Looks pretty safe to me.... :rolleyes:

IMO- that thing is fugly

DoTheMath 03-15-2004 03:57 PM

Is that some pretty nasty damage to the middle strake on the stbd. side!? :eek:

And what is a "clever" prop? Is that a prop that changes with the water conditions all by itself!?;) :D

Contact John Crouse if you want to check out the race story.

It says, proven on race courses world wide? What were the names of the race boats?

Actually it looks in great shape other than not having external steering.

Even at 25K, it's probably a steal....as long as it runs..... and the motors only have one hour. Contact the seller. Hopefully, he's not in Germany.:eek:

It may be slow, but it sure is ugly.:D

GregP 03-15-2004 07:09 PM

I'm not interested in it personally, just wondered if anyone new if it really was "famous"

epeek 03-15-2004 09:05 PM

Nice windscreen,looks like they made it out of
a old woofer box.

CAP071 03-15-2004 09:08 PM

COBRA - Beep Beep. ?

lucky strike 03-15-2004 10:59 PM

I have some picts. of the cobra "Beep Beep" some place.
It was white with a black bolster. Joel Halpern raced it
in the late 70's

Fast Shafts 03-16-2004 12:07 AM

:confused: Something else is not adding up? Although it looks like the 38 Cobra "Beep Beep", Joel Halpern who raced Beep Beep, was killed in 1981. My guess is that this is a 1976 boat, not a 1986.

puder 03-16-2004 12:26 AM

i was thinking it looked liek an old coyote

And I love the way the water hose comes off the t-stat housing and basically crushes the flame arrestor mesh.

That's a heck of a trailer too.... the bow sure is held in well.... never seen bunks that go nearly up to the rub rail.

Oh, and the strake sure looks damaged as someone stated above.
