It's winter, so time to talk smack while waiting for water of the liquid variety!

It you were in the market for an old school wave crusher, which way would you go? Assuming equal condition and power?

41 Apache. The Chuck Norris of powerboats. There is NO equal. The mere act of backing a 41 apache trailer down the ramp sends Davey Jones running for the oyster beds. Firing the engines has King Neptune's knees quivering as he hides behind Sponge Bob Squarepants.

Ben Kramer being incarcerated is like Jesus on the cross, he is being punished for the sins of the Bayliners so that you may crush waves in all of God's, errr Ben's glory!!

In the name of the Bobby, the Ben and the Holy Kevlar AMEN!

You posted this in the Apache section. With out a doubt APACHE. I was going to wait till I pull the pin and retire but I just might step up sooner then later.

The ride in rough water ride and the speed with equal power nearly identical.
36 Apache is deeper but due to the fairing angle you also get more wind in your face.
TG has a little more room in the cockpit.

It would be a tough choice.

36 there Awesome, 38 Cigarette are also Awesome boats but 36's are a lot harder to come by. That's one of the reasons I have always loved Apaches. If your want more room in the cockpit look for a 1995 or new 36. Bobby moved the back seat back 6" for those years. There heavy not kind to bravos.
