Re: Red Death
Check out the engine room on Tatonka! It's not just mechanically beautiful, also durable and rigged to perfection. Apache Powerboats....Chief engines, thats as good as it gets.
Musi and Joe Whiner got some homework to do if they think they can top that.

I hope this answers your original question.
They are usually multiple boat owners as well. The guy who owns 47 Pale Face also has a 41, 40ish Bertram race boat and a 46 Skater.
The Dellatorre brothers have 3 Apaches alone and own a huge boat dealership.
Safe to say none of these guys are going to sell for a low ball offer so they can go buy a new cruiser!

Re: Red Death
Apache Pete thank you so much.This is the EXACT situation i want to avoid.The guys on the forem portray unrealistic selling numbers because they dont want to devalue their boat.Asking ang getting REALLY are two different things.The Apaches are terriffic boats but as my friend who owns the Navasink Marina up here in NJ told me two hundred grand is tops no matter the condition,layup drives ect ect .Flat out (and this guy has ABSOLUTELY no reason to lie ,)if you buy one for more or you buy one for less and sink the money back in over 200k and your upside down.

Re: Red Death
TOO funny ,now someone is trying to broker Leafs boat on the forem for 125,000.00 (the very same boat i referred to MANY times in my previous statements )Navasink NJ had it for the entire summer could not get 85,000.00 (WITH SEMI) and now someone wants 125,000.00 (Steve i know you want to kill me for revealing that , so i owe you a drink)
