Why are Apache's so great?

Hi Andy
Great pics of Spirit of Apache! Huge power in that 47! McManus did a incredible job! "Mark McManus....Master boat builder"

His work is very impressive, and the "look" he goes for is very distinctive. I don't have any reason to care about whatever fallout there was with the business back in the day. The style, and simple but so perfect lines of their boats is what I appreciate about them.

The work McManus did on Warhawk and Spirit of Apache when they were updated is nothing short of breathtaking. It takes awhile, and it's expensive, but the result is as good as it gets for redoing some of these classics.

It would be cool to someday see Ultimate Warrior get an update. Geronimo, Ghost Runner, Tonto, and many other favorites of mine have all been reborn. It's great to see people out there that still love those boats and have spent the time and money to keep them in top shape. :coolgleamA:

So how many wide beams were there?

Quick run down (or long but know it is a lot to ask) on who built what when?

Name of company, main players, in business from when to when and what rides where made during those times to include the most famous?

How’s this for a yacht tender..

No paint, 100 % black gelcoat with tan leather interior. Now this was a fun project, designing lifting brackets to lift this 36' Apache to sit on the back deck..

What was the story with the "Little Injun" mid-console boat that was for sale a while back at national liquidators? I believe it was a 32 or 33' boat.

A real nice 36 and demands attention when ever present on the Cote' D'azur
France. Been out when the boat has been running on a couple of occasions.
Duna.

Wow is that a beautiful boat! I can't imagine how difficult it would be to keep that boat clean, but she's awesome!

Last I seen of the 32’ Apache / Aronow Little Injun, was sold a few years back to a fellow by the name Ted that post under the name DREAMER on the other web-site.. Nice boat.. After that I lost track of it..

Thank You

Do you happen to know if Mr. Flynn stills own the Bull Roar. Last I seen the Apache , it was on its way to Europe on the back of his yacht The Battered Bull. When the Apache arrived in Europe I made arrangements for Patrick in the Netherlands to look after the Apache for Mr. Flynn. That’s the last information I have.. .

 

[Dunaruna]

Hi Bobby, as far as i know Patrick is still looking after the vassel and it travels between the USA and Europe, i believe the same guy owns it but there was talk of another vessel being aquired, again this was at least two years ago. We know when it arrives hEre as it tends to make alot of Noise.:sifone:

I believe that Bull Roar was seen in Chicago this summer running on the lake.

Hi Roger

The yacht in the picture is The Ivory Lady built by Choy Lee.. We supplied twine 21’ Scouts as tenders.. I believe this yacht was owned by the person that started Boat Trader publications
