The Chief

Thought I'd introduce myself as a new member of the board. I just sold my 41' The Chief and purchased the 47' Apache known as Medicine Man. It will be mostly on Lake Michigan in the summer and in Florida in the winter, with some occasional traveling to exciting places such as Lake Havasu, Lake St. Clair, LOTO, Casino De hull, etc. I'd love suggestions on any fun destinations where there are good bars/restaurants and attractive females. Did I mention suggestions where there are attractive females? I know Havasu, Elliott Key for Columbus Day, LTO for 4th of July, any others??? I used to spend time with the old owner of War Party since he was in my Harbor; beautiful boat. I looked at the 47' war party and it just needed too much since the fire. Once you've owned an Apache, its hard to leave the tribe.

Hey Austin
Glad to see you decided to join us . I hope you are having a GREAT time with the boat. I changed to Tonto so it would not be confusing to people since you now own the boat. Again, glad for you to join in and have fun with the boat, I know that I sure did.

Hi Tonto-

question for you? Wasn't the 41 that you now own "Fighter Squadron" ? I'm assuming the paint job is now different? I know I read somewhere that the person that originally had the boat built for himself had his young son "design" the paint scheme ?
But isn't this the boat that had the really bad-ass cockpit with camouflage carbon fiber dash and all kinds of special interior pieces?
Just wondering...
If you have any pictures, it would be great if you could post them here....

By the way, Mark A. just brought my boat up to NY for me and left me a picture of "The Chief"...If I can talk the wife into it, I'll let Mark know!
Take care..

Welcome Austin,
Glad to hear you bought Medicine Man. I'm sure you will have lots of fun with it.
I'm sure Robert will miss it too.

We'll see you around the lake.

Hey Rock Star
Yes I have the old "FIGHTER SQUADRON" boat. It is totally different now. You can see the side of the boat in the tow rig section in the galleries. The cockpit is now blue and white and the dash is now anodized blue with Gaffrig monster gauges. It turned out a lot "cleaner" than the original boat. If I knew how to up load pics from my digital camera I would post them, but I haven't taken the time to learn it yet.

Bob, I'd like to talk to you if you get a minute. I am trying to get my motors back in my 41 full race and I'm having major clearance problems on the port engine. What headers are you using? Which seawater pump? email me your number .

Robert, If you do come North drop me a line, I will buy you a cocktail !
