I am by no means an Apache historian, but 24 is the number that I seem to always hear.

With that said, I know there are a few that may or may not be included in that number. One that comes to mind is the Yellow one that burned in storage that had the raised deck (like the 36's). Spirit of Apache was given a new hull# when it went through the extensive restoration. I also believe the one for the FL to NY race was much beamier and Apache Heritage had to be adjusted length wise because of visibility issues. ETC ETC.


Here is an old list I found from xlr8by


1. Yellow Kramer race boat
2. PTM/Lucky Strike US Offshore Paceboat (Kramers back up boat) AKA US offshore pace boat (American Flag paint scheme)
3. INXS
4. Little Ceasars
5. The Dealer aka Broken Arrow
6. RDS Kid Apache Kid (45')
7. Tweet Revenge aka Paleface
8. Firewater
9. Octavian
10. Medicine Man
11. Boss Hogg aka Quick Tempered
12. War Party
13. Kemosabe
14. Mega Toy (45' boat)
15. Apache Hertiage (45' boat)
16. For Your Eyes Only
17. Running Brave aka Spirit of Apache
18. Miami to NY Race boat was a 47' but the beam appeared wider
19. Fighter One
20. Joe Kinser's boat on Lake Lanier
21. Lil Can
22. American Flag, Pleasure Setup

Stinson should know what is still runnin..

Baywatch I'm xlr8by on SOS, I just wanted to say thanks for giving me credit for putting the list together... you don't see that on the internet often.

On another note I have posted photos on the other site of all of the 47's listed above. I also put together a similar list for 41's. I agree that this list is in no means 100%, but at least it is a good start! Feel free to add further additions and photos!

Wish I could see all the pics over there on the "other" site. My login works just fine but I still am unable to view pics.

Any way someone could post the pics here to go with the list.
