36 Apache vs 35 Cafe vs 38 TG

[cosmic12]

choice's choice's, As you can see in my sig line I have the same problem.
I wish I was in the position to have to make it now but, time will tell.
From what I have seen it would come down to the cabin and if you want more room down there I think the Apache has a little more but I have always liked the Cig chart table and seating. Good luck and you can't go wrong anyway you end up with those choice's.

Per the manual, my cafe weighs 9600# dry...that's been debated though. I suspect it may weigh more.

It might have weighed that when it left the factory.

I'll say this though when I think of dry weight I would also add other peripheral stuff - Sea Strainers, Tie Bar, Hydraulic Steering, Swim Platform, Blowers, etc.... Not to mention the obvious - tools, anchor, lines, etc.....

Dont forget one large well stocked cooler...that can add a couple hundred pounds right there....

Famous for ignorance?

I would think an empty Top Gun trailer would almost be too much for a 1500 to handle. Especially a Dodge......:biggrinjester::sifone:

As long as he has the truck jacked up he'll be fine....

I'd probably take the 36 Apache. They are a little more rare.

"Twistana" would be my first choice.

And how,.... if you put feathers on it they look like theyre blowing in the wind!!!!!

i have to say i liked the lay out in the cafe more so than the 36. i may be biased but just felt like there was more heaed room and freebaord on the cig... they are from the same mold or from the same family so i may be way off on this... both are very cool boats to own...

Especially now with the upgrades it got...

That was the first 36 Apache I ever saw, and remains my favorite to date. That recessed engine hatch was such a cool idea. The brochure shot of it is one of my al time favorite pictures.

Do you have any recent pictures of it by chance? I have a little file for it. :cheers2:

If you miss the train, I'm on,
You will know that I am gone.
You can hear the whistle blow
One hundred miles.
One hundred miles, one hundred miles,
One hundred miles, one hundred miles,
You can hear the whistle blow
One hundred miles.

I'll say this. When I say suspect, I mean I know it weighs a lot more. It's real rough water contender.
