Thanks. only reason I asked is because when I was down ealier I was told I couldn't stick out more then 3ft from the slip I rented. Must of been a Condo regulation where we stayed.


I like White lightning. I like the fact that no one knows how fast it is, adds more to the mystery. never met Travis, but I do feel for him. When you have something that bad azz, everyone else wants to bring you down. Boat looks, and sounds great. Hope to see it in person again some day.

its a thingamabob mixed with a whatchamacallit

its based off an Apache but its far from your normal Apache there has been a bit of work to the hull if you will.
Its a cool boat and very unique setup.

Technically, it is a 41' Legend. Legend used one of the 41' Apache molds to lay it up. The deck is much shorter than a normal 41' Not sure if legend shaved down the normal 41' Apache or created one of its own. The bloodlines are Apache but it is truely a 1 of 1 masterpiece all its own.

I was just sitting on my deck at the 9.5 mile marker and had just gotten done telling my friend I hadn't seen anything cool all day and here came White Lightning. She turned towards the toll bridge and sounded NASTY as ever. Definately my favorite boat on the lake.

Saw WL running around in the slop this weekend. It was a rough MOFO on Sunday, probably as rough as I have ever seen it at LOTO. Lots of sloppy water and it was windy.

I saw him on Sunday as well. The water was definitely sloppy and the wind was kicking.

Pretty brutal out there. I hit hard and killed an engine. Had to idle to Ozark BBQ to check it out. Knocked a wire loose under the dash. Thankfully that's all it was.

VERY rough day.
