I told Curt last night we need to thrash him everytime we go out for the next 6 months cause there may be a payback we don't like in our future. Awesome ride. :cool: NK

Re: Cig Or Apache
Apache.... I rode w/ Brian H. from Delaware Bay Indian River Inlet To Ocean City Inlet back in '95 in some nasty water in a 41 Apache "GERONIMO", Boatpix chased us the hole way....... I've held the upmost respect for that brand eversense.

Re: Cig Or Apache
What are you looking to spend??

Re: Cig Or Apache
Of the three 41 Sabers mine has the least throttle response which can certainly help flatten an occasional rouge wave, but I do have similar weight , a little more speed, big balls, no brains and a golden arm :rolleyes:
Well maybe not golden but at the very least, a somewhat experienced hunger for rough water driving. I still have a fighting chance and I do have that "extra" 2 feet in the water. :drink: |
Re: Cig Or Apache
[QUOTE=TwinStepGun]:D :D
The key is, they both need big power! Without it, the Apache and the old Gun's are a different animal. No other boat compares to either. Big power and #6's. That says it all. :D BTW Sounds like you are buying for the first three nights in Key West. :drink: NK |

Parn ..... sounds like you guys had a pretty good time out runnin the other night !!!! This is a fun thread to follow ... for a couple of reasons !!! :D I'm looking forward to seeing FOUR Saber 41's at Smoke next year ! The triple boat does have something special when it gets rough and we all must deal with that here on the great lakes !!! Call it what you will , weight , sweet-spot, whatever .... but in nasty water , when it starts to get dicey for everyone , that boat is able to cover more water , more comfortably at speed than most others that have tried to give chase . The ability to "just leave" in the rough stuff provides a real sense of security and control ... to be continued as the new owner takes on a new crop of challengers on Lake Michigan !

That depends on what Apache you throw 1000's in. This picture was taken buy a guy who had 700's in a Top Gun. Notice which end of my boat he photographs ( just kidding). This Apache runs 100+ |

It's got speed that you can use when other ( faster) boats are choking on the conditions.

Re: Cig Or Apache
For close the price of Starchaser I could lay you up a new hull to your specs. I hope this does not stir up any trouble.

Apache 41, Period.

Re: Cig Or Apache
I know that one day I will move up to a TopGun or a Tiger. But, In my opinion, the 41 Apache is the baddest MoFo ever built!! I'd love to have one someday.
How much is MM asking for his boat??? |

Re: Cig Or Apache
Well if thats only what I had to chose between then, a 38 Cig for 900HP or less power per engine and a 41 for 900HP+ per engine.
