Default '98 36' Apache Comanche... Any history, it's haunting me!

I was truly hoping someone else would ask about the poor girl for sale... Any history?!
There is a 41' (414?) for sale in Michigan I'd rescue in another life...Another lost soul.

Greetings to all btw,
James

Storage meaning it sat beside the house with a blue tarp.. last i heard the transom was soft and I don't think the engines have been run in 10 years.

I did quite a few searches... I found an old thread with pics, but with a different hatch (no-scoops.) It's been stated that Apache built (4) 36' Comanche's...
It would certainly be surprising if ALL four had the 'Long haired leaping gnome' paint scheme! I'm a new member, and out of respect for this forum, the previous owner, and the current seller, I'm limiting my questions, opinion, and possible intentions. Although, I will say that--- From the pictures and print I love what I see, and I'm interested (obviously.) Any background will certainly be very much appreciated! Thank you '315Duramax' and 'Bad Ass TA WS6' for your response.

James

It was originally built for or sold to Greek light in a member here or used to be if I remember right. It had bravos I think originally , then got #6's . Got traded in to Nattional Marine they swiped the 6's and put on 3 's or 3A's, whatever is on it now. Ed who last had it bought the 6's to put her back to how she used to be. I highly doubt the transom is soft based how well Mark builds his boats. Call the factory I am sure Mark McManus will tell you any information you want to know. 1-239-454-1114.

Wow, thank you so much for sharing such a valuable piece of history on that girl. I would've needed a crystal ball to forecast that one... Very cool to know!

Sincerely,
James
