If Lake Murray wasn't 90% of my boating future Apache would be the choice for me. If I was on the Ocean a lot of time there is nothing finer than Gostrunner :) |

Each Apache had a unique build and character. Hell, there's a a few guys around here that can give you the history on ANY Apache ever built. To me, that gives the Apache the edge. That about sums it up. "Apache, If I had to explain you wouldn't understand" :cool: :) |
Re: Cig Or Apache
I seen in the classifieds of EBM that Star Chaser is for sale on a trailer,, but basically a bare hull for $45K..
My vote if money was no object.. Apache 47,, With trip Sterlings... trouble is that I would have to keep Scott & Ruben on retainer to maintenance it... :eek: |
Re: Cig Or Apache
Love both, but I would go with APACHE or a new SABER. Steve

Re: Cig Or Apache
yep, too old summed it up admirably well: every apache is a piece of offshore history. but if i had enough courage to go for a 41 with big power, i'd go all the way and have a 47 with triple indecent power...
As far as comparing a T/S with an apache goes, i'm also sure that a 2005 viper is faster, more reliable and makes more sense than an AC Cobra 427. But I'll take the Cobra thank you very much! Why? It's called character... |

The old TG's and the 41' pleasures are someeeeeeewhat comparable but the full stagger 41' hotrods are a totaly different animal in the rough, 18" centers work when it gets choppy. |
Re: Cig Or Apache
I'd have to agree w/ WW.
The ride w/ Mark & Lucy will make me say APACHE! That boat w/ 650s ran 84mph. I'd like to see it w/ the 850s. :D |
Re: Cig Or Apache
Great boats to say the least, my favorite and maybe the best made Apache ever is the 47 KEMOSABE with triple Chief blower motors. I prefer the 41 over the 38 cig or the 42 Tiger. However, it takes less power and less $$$$ to run over 100 in the Top Gun. :D

until it gets rough, or your bravo's break, or both at the same time. :( NK |
